 ===== Overview ===== ===== Overview =====
  
-Visualization experts from the laboratory will introduce [[https://visit-dav.github.io/visit-website/|VisIt]]- a highly-scalable, open-source, multi-platform data analysis and visualization application. VisIt users can quickly build visualizations to analyze their data using qualitative and quantitative techniques. The data exploration can be done interactively in 3D. Attendees will participate in a hands-on session working with VisIt to create 3D visualizations of scientific datasets.+Visualization experts from the laboratory will introduce ParaView Catalyst- an open-source in situ visualization and analysis framework. Catalyst is an API and SDK that users can integrate into simulation codes to enable in situ visualization and analysis. Combined with ParaView, users can take full advantage of the visualization power of ParaView to either automatically or interactively visualize and analyze live simulation data. Attendees will participate in a hands-on session working with ParaView to create in situ visualizations.
  
-VisIt is an essential tool for scientific visualization, especially for large datasets. It is professional-quality, user-friendly software that is packed with advanced functionality. It was developed to analyze extremely large datasets (using distributed memory and parallel computing resources); but, its special super-power is that it grows with the user's data, running great on the laptop, the workstation, the cluster (Ibex), and the supercomputer (Shaheen). Visualization and analytic pipelines created in VisIt at the start of your project will continue to work efficiently even as the amount of data produced continues to grow. +Join us to learn how to use in situ visualization to save time otherwise spent on post hoc visualization while gaining faster insights into simulation output.

-Join us to learn how to prepare data, automate visualizations, and scale your analysis from workstation to cluster to supercomputer.+
  
 ===== Who Should Attend? ===== ===== Who Should Attend? =====
  
-The target audience for this workshop are KAUST users who are looking for a new scientific visualization solution and have little or no experience with VisIt or scientific visualization in general.+The target audience for this workshop are KAUST users who have experience using visualization tools (ParaView or VisIt) and want to create an automated visualization and analysis solution to save them time.
