Description
Summary:Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2008. === Includes bibliographical references (p. [39]-[40]). === In this thesis, we propose a solution for remote visualization for supercomputers. Our solution consists of two tools that help users visualize data from high performance computers. The first one takes advantage of the Web and AJAX technology [25], is simple, light weight and does not require any pre-installation which can be a perfect tool for demonstration supercomputing data. The second tool, a 3D Viewer on MATLAB Star-P [8], is to utilize more resources in the user's workstation to achieve better quality visualization and more flexibility in data navigation and analysis. Both solutions strive to create a simple and user-friendly framework that supports researchers' goals to create, analyze, test and debug numerical algorithms in supercomputing world. === by Huy Nguyen. === S.M.
