ARSC is offering training on the following two vizualization packages for current and prospective users. Pre-registration is required.
ParaView (Parallel Visualization Application)
An open-source, multi-platform application designed to visualize data sets of size varying from small to very large.
An offline visualization tool meant for postprocessing or covisualization of simulation outputs directly on supercomputers.
The instructor for both workshops is Randall Hand, a Visualization Scientist with the Unclassified Data Analysis and Assessment Center for the DoD High Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP).

You may chose to run on ARSC's classroom Linux workstations, in which case you must either have an active ARSC account or bring proof-of-citizenship to the first day of class in order to obtain a temporary training account. Alternatively, you may bring your own laptop.
Data for lab exercises will be provided and, in addition, you are invited to "Bring Your Own Data." The instructor will reserve time to provide individual assistance.
Assuming you have an ARSC account, "Your Own Data" can reside on any ARSC system to which you have access including, of course, the storage servers. If you bring your own laptop, it might be on your hard drive.
