Projects using VISIT

 VISIT is currently used in three applications that are located at different institutes of the Research Centre Juelich.

ParView

At the Institute of Petroleum and Organic Geochemistry (ICG-4) two parallel codes (TRACE and PARTRACE) for the simulation of solute transport in heterogeneous soil-aquifer systems (e.g. pollutants in ground water) have been developed and are subject to continuous enhancements. ParView is an AVS/Express based application that allows an online-visualization of the coupled simulation. Among the steering capabilities of ParView is the ability to insert solutants into running simulations. ParView uses VISIT for its connection to TRACE and PARTRACE. ParView has been developed within the Gigabit Testbed West project.

FIRE

FIRE (functional MRI in real-time) is a parallel, modular, and distributed software package for real-time analysis of functional MRI data. FIRE has been developed by the Institute of Medicine (IME). Functional MRI is used to identify regions in a human brain that are activated by sensory stimulations or motor tasks. VISIT is used to transfer the results of the data analysis from a parallel computer to an AVS/Express based visualization component. These extensions to FIRE have been performed within the Gigabit Testbed West project.

DMMD

Molecular dynamics on massively parallel computers (DMMD) is a project at the Central Institute for Applied Mathematics. It is aimed to develop and evaluate parallel algorithms for MD simulation. A visualization application (dmmdview) based on AVS/Express provides the online-visualization and some steering capabilities for DMMD. dmmdview uses VISIT for the connection to the simulation program. The control panel of dmmdview allows the modification of temperature and width of the heating areas on the left and right side of the simulated volume.
