ATML Visualization & Interactive HPC

In numerous scientific disciplines, vast amounts of data are generated daily. This data often stems from complex simulations executed on supercomputers or from high-resolution measurement instruments employed in experimental research. Scientific visualization serves as an indispensable tool for analyzing such data. It enables researchers to interpret and explore simulation outcomes effectively, facilitating a deeper understanding of intricate spatial and temporal relationships while uncovering hidden patterns and structures within the data.
Beyond its analytical role, scientific visualization also plays a pivotal part in communicating significant findings. It transforms complex datasets into visually intuitive representations that can bridge gaps between scientists across disciplines and make research accessible to non-specialists. These visualizations are often integral to publications, presentations, and outreach efforts, showcasing the impact and relevance of scientific discoveries.
To further enhance accessibility and usability, the ATML Visualization & Interactive HPC group, together with other groups at JSC, is integrating a JupyterLab portal for our HPC systems. This initiative aims to provide users with an intuitive and interactive gateway to high-performance computing resources. By integrating JupyterLab, we enable researchers to seamlessly combine coding, data analysis, and visualization within a single, user-friendly environment. This not only lowers the barrier to entry for new users but also streamlines workflows, fostering collaboration and innovation across scientific domains.
At the core of our mission is the application and adaption of algorithms, tools, and methodologies for data visualization. Our team works closely with users of HPC systems to ensure these technologies meet the demands of cutting-edge research. Additionally, we engage in funded projects to bring innovative visualization techniques into application, driving progress in both scientific discovery and interdisciplinary communication.
