Global static indexing for real-time exploration of very large regular grids

Abstract: In this paper we introduce a new indexing scheme for progressive traversal and visualization of large regular grids. We demonstrate the potential of our approach by providing a tool that displays at interactive rates planar slices of scalar field data with very modest computing resources. We obtain unprecedented results both in terms of absolute performance and, more importantly, in terms of scalability. On a laptop computer we provide real time interaction with a 2048 3 grid (8 Giga-nodes) using only 20MB of … Show more

“…-interactive view-dependent visualization of massive datasets using VisIt -efficient parallel reads of complete checkpoint data for simulation restarts -parallel multiresolution reads for summary analysis In order to address both parallel full resolution reads, as well as parallel or serial partial resolution reads we utilize the IDX data format [20]. IDX is a hierarchical multiresolution data format with support for both lightweight serial and fast distributed parallel I/O.…”

“…One form is to optimize the use of distributed network data caches and replicas, so a request for data goes to a "nearby" rather than "distant" source [1,30], as well as to leverage high performance protocols that are more suitable than a TCP for bulk data transfers [1]. Other optimizations leverage data subsetting, filtering, and progressive transmission from remote sources to reduce the amount of data payload crossing the network [11,23]. Some systems, like the Distributed Parallel Storage System (DPSS), provide a scalable, high performance, distributed-parallel data storage system that can be optimized for data access patterns and the characteristics of the underlying network [31].…”
