Introduction to MobileVisLab

At SVU, a Remote and Collaborative Visualization System, aliased MobileVisLab, was setup for you to run your favorite modeling software such as Fluent, Abaqus and GaussView, and create high impact and insightful animation using tools such as EnSight and Analyze, anywhere anytime on you laptop or desktop.

MobileVisLab also supports collaborative visualization, where two or more collaborators at different locations can view and work on the same graphical model. Besides being used for one-to-one collaborative discussion, it can also be used for group teaching.

Data and storage provisioning will be a key feature of the new service. The new service offers a parallel file system with 2 terabytes (TB) of storage capacity. It will be used to enable fast access to sharable data such as the visible human database (which can be used for creating visualisation model for medical teaching); and to allow users to upload large dataset for processing.
