Adaptive Scientific Visualization System for Desktop Computers and Mobile Devices

摘要

In this paper, the development of a client-server scientific visualization system named SciVi is described. This system is designed to render the results of scientific experiments in a human-observable form. The means for flexible integration of visualization system with software solving scientific problems (solver) is proposed. The multi-platform portability is achieved that allows SciVi to be able to work on desktop computers as well as on different types of mobile devices with no source code modification. It is showing how to improve the user abilities of interaction with the graphical scene and to reach an optimal load of computer system at the same time. The main feature of our approach is that the system developed is not only adaptable but also adaptive to the performance of servers and clients and to connection speed. The Dublin Core metadata standard is used to describe different kinds of recourses including server and client settings, 3D-models and shaders.
