Abstract

With the increasing power of current supercomputers, flow field simulations become larger and larger. Those datasets are too large to fit into the main memory of a visualization workstation and too large to be processed in a reasonable time on a stand-alone system. Distributed post-processing can eliminate dominant bottlenecks. With parallel computer systems, the post-processing can show a considerable speed-up. In this paper, we address issues to optimize several phases of the pipeline-based post-processing for interactive exploration of time-dependent, multi-block flow field simulation datasets. Firstly, we present the distributed post-processing framework, its approach to manage multi-block data structures, and how nested parallelization can improve the overall runtime. Scalability, balancing, and efficiency of algorithms optimized for unsteady multi-block datasets are presented. However, complex feature extractions are still time-consuming. For interactive exploration approaches in virtual environments, further strategies like streaming of intermediate data from post-processing backend to visualization frontend are needed. If the extracted visualization objects are too complex to be rendered with interactive frame rates, view-dependent multi-resolution techniques can help to present essential details without losing real-time rendering. To improve the interactivity, several integrated strategies are evaluated. Run-time measurements prove the efficiency of the approaches. An outlook for future steps concludes this paper.
