Description:
In this talk, we will discuss the Blue Waters Project Visualization Team, both how it fits within the organization as well as the responsibilities of the team. We will outline the Blue Waters Project: the Blue Waters Project began in 4 B.C. (before Cray), but we will focus on the development of the project beginning at 0, with the installation of the Blue Waters Test and Development System, JYC (Dec. 2011). We will discuss both this system as well as the Early Science System, H2O. Each system presented challenges in administration, support, outreach, research and development and we will discuss these in detail. We will also describe various visualization undertakings and areas in which we see excellent opportunities for collaboration. Finally, we will conclude with some info on the final Blue Waters Machine.
