A central objective of the project is the speedup of the finite element simulation on the basis of PERMAS (solver) and VisPER (visualization) using hybrid many-core architectures. A major focus of innovation is an abstraction layer which standardizes the interaction of both simulation tools with the hardware and facilitates the shared access to distributed or hierarchically ordered model data.

When researcher explore matter using simulations, they generate enormous data consisting of so called particles. These particles represent atoms over the simulated time, forming so called time-based data sets. Often, there are additional properties included such as pressure, temperature or charge.

To evaluate the data sets, the sub project D3 develops methods for visualising the data and for efficiently storing the generated output. Here, real time rendering, displaying many images per second for interactively exploring the data, is a special challenge. Another challenge is the representation for the researcher who need to a specifically suited visualization for their application and problem.
