Scientists and businesses running HPC simulations leverage visualization and analysis tools for data exploration, quantitative analysis, visual debugging, and communication of results. This half-day tutorial will provide attendees with a practical introduction to mesh-based HPC visualization and analysis using VisIt, an open source parallel scientific visualization and data analysis platform. We will provide a foundation in basic HPC visualization practices and couple this with hands-on experience creating visualizations and analyzing data. =0A=0AThis tutorial includes:=0A=0A1) An introduction to visualization techniques for mesh-based simulations. =0A=0A2) A guided tour of VisIt.=0A=0A3) Hands-on demonstrations of end-to-end visualizations of both a water flow simulation and blood flow (aneurysm) simulation. =0A=0AThis tutorial builds on the past success of VisIt tutorials, updated and anchored with new concrete use cases. Attendees will gain practical knowledge and recipes to help them effectively use VisIt to analyze data from their own simulations. =0A=0A=0AThis work was performed under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory under Contract DE-AC52-07NA27344.
