Abstract

This paper describes the implementation of a visualization system in a distributed environment, on top of a shared objects management layer, named DS2 [4]. The DS2 library manages partitioned objects, that can be distributed over a network, or among the different processors of a parallel computer. Parts of objects can be accessed by processes having no knowledge about their actual location. It is running on CRAY supercomputers, Intel iPSC860 parallel system, as well as on Silicon Graphics and Sun workstations.
