The Dv Project
The Dv project is developing the capability to provide heavyweight
services on computational grids of hosts connected by the best-effort
Internet.
Our first target application is a remote visualization service for the
Quake project, a longterm
effort between Carnegie Mellon, UC-Berkeley, San Diego State
University, Southern California Earthquake Center, Pittsburgh
Supercomputing Center, and Kogakuin University in Tokyo. The Quake
project uses computers to predict the motion of the ground during
earthquakes. Our goal is to be able to generate
quake visualizations interactively and in real-time from simulation
data stored in remote datasets.
