A prototype of distributed molecular visualization on computational grids
FUTURE GENERATION COMPUTER SYSTEMS, 20:727-737, JUN 2004

This paper presents a distributed rendering system for visualization of massive molecular data sets on computational grids. It is designed with the ability to animate molecular dynamics (MD) simulation trajectories imported from a simulation engine in a distributed environment. MD simulation and visualization are computationally intensive tasks and computational grids are promising technologies for these applications. The framework of the system is introduced and the grid technologies and the parallel rendering approach are discussed in this paper. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
