As usual, Kitware, Inc. had a booth at Supercomputing 2015 and invited several technical talks. Here is a brief overview of some of the VTK-m related activities in the booth. +

+

VTK-m/Catalyst/ParaView Demo

+

Rob Maynard presented a live demo of using VTK-m in situ on a simulation running on Oak Ridge's Titan supercomputer. The demonstration was running the PyFR simulation with ParaView Catalyst integrated. Within Catalyst a series of VTK-m algorithms were run on the data, and the generated VTK-m data structures were rendered directly on the system. The entire operation from simulation computation to rendering happened completely on 256 GPUs devices without pulling data to CPU memory. +

On the show floor was an instance of ParaView running on a laptop and connected over the internet to the running PyFR simulation through the Catalyst library. In addition to getting continuous updates of the running simulation/visualization, the local controls could interactively change the visualization as well as pause and resume the simulation. +

VTK-m Overview

+

[Ken Moreland] gave an overview presentation of VTK-m. This was a similar presentation to one given earlier at the Ultrascale Visualization Workshop. Slides for the talk are available here. +
