The 3rd Interdisciplinary Conference on Intersections of Visualization Practices and Techniques

29^th - 30^th October, Loughborough University A JISC funded joint event hosted by vizNET at Loughborough University.

vizNET 2009 aims to help new researchers and postgraduates within UK academia utilise visualization to improve their own analysis and research.

Visualization is an important tool for communicating and analysing complex information in many disciplines. Advances in numerical simulations and imaging techniques have provided scientists with a new wealth of detail into the natural world, but also new challenges in visualization analysis. This year there is a special focus on applied science and engineering disciplines, specifically targeting large data set problems that are often encountered within these fields.

The two day workshop aims to introduce leading visualization techniques and improve understanding about state of the art developments for both novice and more experienced users. The workshop will cover a range of topics:

• Intersections in visualizations practice
• Modelling and Simulation
• A rough guide to data visualization
• High-Performance visualization using Cloud-Computing
• Distributed visualization and the Grid
• GPU-based visualization and computing techniques and their application
• Giga-Pixel display walls and applications.
• Visualization frameworks including VTK / Paraview, Visit, and AVS
• Live high-performance visualization demonstrations and showcases
