AGLP - Light path enabled AccessGrid • SFU Team • Brian Corrie • Todd Zimmerman • Dominic Lepaine SFU
User needs – computational science • Visualization • Large, complex data sets • Collaboration • Distributed research projects • Technology - where are things going? • Ubiquitous inexpensive displays • Computers and graphics cards • Advanced networking • Incredible capability! SFU
AccessGrid (AG) • Advanced collaboration environment • WestGrid • Advanced collaboration and visualization • Advanced networking • AGLP • Extend lightpath to the user • Provide API to UCLP • Integrate lightpath control into AG • Provide advanced AG visualizationand collaboration services SFU
Media LightPath (UCLP) SC 2005 LightPath (Seattle) GLVF LightPath (San Diego) SFU
Collaborative Parametric Design • Robert Woodbury, Mark Cichy • Distributed, real-time design exploration Image Image SFU
A•VI•RE -- A VIsual REte • an interpretive multimedia repository • R. Woodbury, V. Chen, C. Qian • Remote collaboration with large media objects Image Image SFU
Collaborative Computational Steering • University of Alberta and SFU • The goal of this project is to explore how advanced computing technologies (WestGrid) and networking (UCLP) could allow scientists and engineers to solve complex Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) problems creating in effect an advanced Collaborative Virtual Wind Tunnel (CVWT). University of Alberta
Advanced Visualization and Simulation • University of Calgary • The goal of this project is to explore how networking and advanced visualization can assist in the design and distribution of virtual environments for research, teaching and public education. • Researchers: • Prof. Richard M. Levy, Faculty of Environmental Design • Prof. Peter Dawson, Department of Archaeology • Prof. Larry Katz, Faculty of Kinesiology • Prof. Mary O’Brien, Department of Germanic Studies • Prof. James Parker, Department of Computer Science • Prof. Gail Kopp, Faculty of Education University of Calgary
