Research

My research expertise includes ultrascale scientific visualization areas such as large data visualization, multivariate data visualization and time-varying data visualization, as well as systems oriented areas of visualization such as parallel, distributed, remote and collaborative visualization. Our research has been funded by DOE Office of Science and National Science Foundation. Please refer to SeeLab Research pages for our research highlights.

A recent featured article provides an interesting bird's eye view about "Next-Generation Visualization Technologies: Enabling Discoveries at Extreme Scale", by Kwan-Liu Ma, Chaoli Wang, Hongfeng Yu, Ken Moreland, Jian Huang and Robert Ross, in SciDAC Review, Vol. 12, pp. 12 - 21 , Spring 2009.
