Abstract:
The visual analysis of large numerical simulations on mobile devices needs remote parallelizable visualization methods for low-bandwidth and high-latency networks. Based on a mathematical model for multi-layered planar impostor representation of arbitrary complex and unbounded scenes, we adapt an algorithm of optimal viewport placement from the theory of optimal experimental design. The results are evaluated in a realistic setting, proving the practical relevance of the theoretical findings, leading to a bandwidth-efficient remote visualization concept for high performance computing simulation results.
