SWIM Portal Feedback &Data Management Needs Gheni Abla Eliot Feibush http://cswim.org Job Monitor
Web Portal • Goal: provide a secure browser-enabled interface for: • monitor simulation runs • discover archived runs through rich meta-data • initiate visualization • Convenience for physics analysis • Not a required single entry point for obtaining data and information
Current Working Web Portal http://swim.gat.com:8000/monitor monitoring information on all runs with the ability to drill down into greater detail on specific runs
Next Version of Web Portal… • Better page refresh • Allow detailed search for archived runs: • by user, runid, date, keyword, (anything else?) • Provide password enabled user registration and login; Login is not required to view but • Allow receiving emails about run status • Personalized web page view • Allow post comments • Any other functionalities?
Portal Aspects • Integrates data monitoring + job monitoring • Leverages FusionGrid SciDAC + PPL ElVis • Web accessible • Navigates firewall without login/authenticate • Implemented quickly, low FTE • “Strong Client” – interactive data exploration • Limited server side development so far ...
Server Side Enhancement Movie of psiRZ over time Python script runs on data server: Copies psiRZ from each plasma state. (Long-Poe Ku) Creates new netCDF file with composite (psiRZ, t)
Additional 2-D Data over Time? • Other 2-D variables to monitor • Create movie file (.AVI or .MOV)
CSTATE – Compare Plasma States Existing Fortran program integrated with ElVis • Display graphs & tables in ElVis • Planned enhancement • Integrate as web service • Demo in Display Wall Room A104
NERSC Web Directory • Project directory at NERSC can have HTTP-served directory for web access • Read netCDF files over the web
Display Techniques • Scroll through grid of full-size graphs • Omit labels, titles as graphs get smaller • Display abbreviated title as index for: QuickLook - demo • Draw multiple variables per graph
Many Graphs Approach • Similar to managing slides and digital images: Scrollable Index + 1 big graph • Filmstrip (row or column of small graphs, e.g. Apple “Cover Flow”, Windows Filmstrip PowerPoint “Normal View” • Abbreviated title (short name)
Proposed Graph Layout ne(rho) Pe_icrf(rho) Pmin_e(rho) Eperp_min(rho) Te(rho) Pi_icrf(rho) Pmin_i(rho) Epll_mini(rho) Ti(rho) Pi_icrf(rho) Pmin_i(rho)
Graph LayoutDiscussion • Graphs ≈ Digital Photos • Favorite photo management technique? • Subdivide big image for comparisons, cut/paste • Multiple windows with groups of variables • tabbed pages?
