[Paraview] Research areas utilizing paraview

[Moreland, Kenneth]

Uh, sure.  The difference between ParaView and VTK is that ParaView is an end user tool whereas VTK is a library that contains many visualization algorithms.  Applications like ParaView are built on top of VTK.  If you want to do research with ParaView, you will probably need to learn VTK quite well.

Hi guys


I would like thank Kenneth and Ken personnaly for their comments. Thanks again for the information. How about VTK, we could use that as our tool right ?

One area of research that may pique your interest is that of time-based visualization.  A feature that is unique to ParaView/VTK is the support of time requests in the visualization pipeline.  It's a new technology that I am particularly happy with.  We recently published a paper at the IEEE Vis conference that summarizes the implementation.

There is a fair amount of research on visualizing data that changes over time, and I expect there is lots of interesting research for doing this kind of work within a general-purpose, parallel, pipeline-based visualization tool like ParaView.

Hi everyone



Me and my team members are pursuing our postgraduate degree. We will have to develope a project as part of our dissertation thesis. My team members and I managed to visualize the data given to us - the first phase using VTK.We would be moving to the second phase in which we need to parallelize the visualization process. We will be using paraview and building it on our cluster. I was just wondering, in which part can we focus on our research, it has be about parallel processing of visualization and that also using ParaView. Paraview seems to be able to do a lot of things, but we, as students need to develop some kind of algorithms or some kinda framework or some new methodology. Or maybe some kinda parallel plugin, readers .



We are hoping by posting this question in mailing list, we would get some good response about how we can go about on our parallel processing and which area we can focus on. We are doing our literature review, but we are still unsure and we don't have any parallel visualization group in our university, we are the pioneers. We hope someone can help.
