- The Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) is a state-funded,
- shared supercomputer resource for researchers at Ohio col-
- leges and universities. Commercial industry uses the CRAY
- on a cost-recovery basis. In September 1989 a CRAY Y-
- MP8/864 will be available to users.
-
- The Ohio Supercomputer Graphics Project is a major component
- of the OSC's program. The Project has developed a graphics
- visualization toolkit, apE, for displaying and animating
- results of scientific computation on several supported
- workstations. This developing product is commercially
- available through the Center.
-
- The Ohio Visualization Laboratory (OVL) houses hardware for
- visualizing scientific results of projects conducted on the
- CRAY. The OVL includes high-end (e.g., Abekas, Pixar, and
- Stellar) workstations and paper output devices; display
- equipment and software; and video equipment, including
- display, conversion, and animation storage facilities.
- Users generally come to the Laboratory to use equipment,
- although much equipment can be used over TCP/IP networks.
