Visualization and Analysis of SPH Data using a ParaView Plugin and a
Distributed Shared Memory Interface”<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>It’s a bit off topic, but since I see so much
co-processing activity going on (which looks excellent by the way, and I’ll
soon be testing it out) – and we have our own framework basically running
quite well and stable now. I thought you might like to see an abstract we sent
off about a week ago to an SPH conference (in the UK in June this year). (it’s
the main place where pv-meshless gets shown off).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thought you might be interested in the progress we’ve
made.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>a couple of things not mentioned in the abstract which make
it possibly useful (though if I’d known about the coprocessng stuff
before we wrote our proposal, I may not have gone down this path!)<o:p></o:p></p>
