Abstract
Scientists often explore and analyze large-scale scientific simulation data by leveraging 2-D and 3-D visualizations. The data and tasks can be complex and therefore best supported using myriad display technologies, from mobile devices to large high-resolution display walls to virtual reality headsets. Using a simulation of neuron connections in the human brain provided for the 2023 IEEE Scientific Visualization Contest, we present our work leveraging various web technologies to create a multiplatform scientific visualization application. Users can spread visualization and interaction across multiple devices to support flexible user interfaces and both colocated and remote collaboration. Drawing inspiration from responsive web design principles, this work demonstrates that a single codebase can be adapted to develop scientific visualization applications that operate everywhere.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications (CG&A) bridges the theory and practice of computer graphics, visualization, virtual and augmented reality, and HCI. From specific algorithms to full system implementations, CG&A offers a unique combination of peer-reviewed feature articles and informal departments. Theme issues guest edited by leading researchers in their fields track the latest developments and trends in computer-generated graphical content, while tutorials and surveys provide a broad overview of interesting and timely topics. Regular departments further explore the core areas of graphics as well as extend into topics such as usability, education, history, and opinion. Each issue, the story of our cover focuses on creative applications of the technology by an artist or designer. Published six times a year, CG&A is indispensable reading for people working at the leading edge of computer-generated graphics technology and its applications in everything from business to the arts.
