Abstract

One of the most pressing issues with petascale analysis is the transport of simulation results data to a meaningful analysis. Traditional workflow prescribes storing the simulation results to disk and later retrieving them for analysis and visualization. However, at petascale this storage of the full results is prohibitive. A solution to this problem is to run the analysis and visualization concurrently with the simulation and bypass the storage of the full results. One mechanism for doing so is in transit visualization in which analysis and visualization is run on I/O nodes that receive the full simulation results but write information from analysis or provide run-time visualization. This paper describes the work in progress for three in transit visualization solutions, each using a different transport mechanism.
