Development of Visualization Modules for ICEPIC

Abstract

AVS/Express Developer's edition, by Advanced Visual Systems Inc, is a complex data visualization kit consisting of several hundred different modules, as well as a couple different editors, each serving a somewhat different function. In order to use this program, extensive training is required. In hopes of making things easier by designing a system with which people not familiar with the specifics of AVS can create visuals fairly quickly, an alternate method was developed. Through the custom designing of new modules specified to do certain things simply, graphs and movies are now considerably easier to make and include their own, easy to use, interfaces. This assists the computationalists at the Center for Plasma Theory and Computation by allowing them to view the results of their simulations more easily.
