1 | Our SV2 research and design is based on the success of Scivis. Scivis is a collaborative scientific data visualization package written in Java. |
2 | Scivis allows users to visualize their data, which is piped in via sockets. |
3 | Although Scivis has been widely used in the "Binary Black Hole Grand Challenge", it still had major limitations. |
4 | One of the most common complaints against Scivis was that users could only collaborate with other Scivis users. |
5 | SV2 is being designed such that users of Scivis3d (a Java3D version of Scivis), AVS, & VRML can collaborate together. |
