Data Visualization Software from Advanced Visual Systems Selected for
Italy's First Virtual Theater
CINECA Laboratory (Bologna, Italy), a research facility run by a consortium
of Italian universities, has selected software from Advanced Visual Systems to
visualize a broad range of scientific, analysis and high-performance computing
projects at the new state-of-the art facility.
Using AVS/Express(R) Multipipe Edition in conjunction with an SGI Onyx2,
Origin 3800 and a CRAY T3E massively parallel computer to project data onto
a 150 degree curved screen using a Barco Barron immersive desk connected
to three Onyx2 graphics pipes, the Laboratory will undertake, among
other projects, the development of breakthrough bioengineering applications
and the simulation of cultural heritage data to maintain and protect
valuable historic sites.
According to Sanzio Bassini, Manager of CINECA's High Performance Systems
Division, "We are pleased to be able to use the AVS software systems
in our Virtual Theater because they open up a wider range of applications
for us to use in our research. We have used AVS's software at the
Lab for many years and have developed a close relationship with
the company. As such, the move to empower our Virtual Theater with
AVS/Express was a natural step and it enables us to consider undertaking
larger projects and collaborative research with external organizations."
"We find it very important to have a tool such as AVS/Express," continued
Bassini, "because the software allows one to be able to build
an application on a laptop computer and visualize the data without
any additional effort inside the Virtual Theater. Partnership is
key to our mission at CINECA, and the partnership with AVS helps
us to improve our technologies, especially in the industrial fields."
