Visual Exploration of Simulated and Measured Blood Flow - Scientific Visualization: Uncertainty, Multifield, Biomedical, and Scalable Visualization - page 308

Scalability includes both scaling up and scaling down. Scalable devices include
smart phones, tablets, monitors, and display walls. In Chap. 29 , Krüger and
Hadwiger explore such hardware and software infrastructure for scaling across
such diverse devices. Different user interfaces and rendering techniques are
described as well as the outlook for future devices.
Scalable function representations are important for data analysis, processing,
and storage. Jang provides an overview of common methods for multiscale
representations in Chap. 30 . There is an extensive bibliography included for fur-
ther reading on this topic.
High-performance computational (HPC) resources provide a rich environment
of ever increasing simulation data. In the final chapter of this Part, Flatken,
Wagner, and Gerndt discuss infrastructure for visualization and interaction using
HPC systems. The chapter provides an overview of current solutions and ongoing
research in this domain. State-of-the-art infrastructures are described and example
implementations are provided.
