Corridor One:An Integrated Distance Visualization Enuronments for SSI+ASCI Applications
The goal of Corridor One: An Integrated Distance Visualization Environment for ASCI and SSI Application was to combine the forces of six leading edge laboratories working in the areas of visualization and distributed computing and high performance networking (Argonne National Laboratory, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Los Alamos National Laboratory, University of Illinois, University of Utah and Princeton University) to develop and deploy the most advanced integrated distance visualization environment for large-scale scientific visualization and demonstrate it on applications relevant to the DOE SSI and ASCI programs. The Corridor One team brought world class expertise in parallel rendering, deep image based rendering, immersive environment technology, large-format multi-projector wall based displays, volume and surface visualization algorithms, collaboration tools and streaming media technology, network protocols for image transmission, high-performance networking, quality of service technology and distributed computing middleware. Our strategy was to build on the very successful teams that produced the I-WAY, ''Computational Grids'' and CAVE technology and to add these to the teams that have developed the fastest parallel visualizations systems and the most widely used networking infrastructure for multicast and distributed media. Unfortunately, just as we were getting going on the Corridor One project, DOE cut the program after the first year. As such, our final report consists of our progress during year one of the grant.
