Scivis Relationship to TANGO
Scivis is fully collaborative, independent of TANGO.
- This allows Scivis to be faster and more memory efficient than with the additional machinery of TANGO.
- Scivis only supports a limited set of collaboration tools, and is not a general collaboration environment.
- Supports: Visualization, chat, whiteboard.
- Doesn’t support: Audio/Video conferencing, shared browser, games, etc..; I.e.. it is not a general collaborative tool, which is the advantage of TANGO.
- TANGO can act as a front end to NCSA CAVE and other visualization systems such as Scivis, to allow remote users to visualize between multiple sites including CAVEs and workstations.
