High-performance simulations generate massive datasets—but extracting insight from that data shouldn’t be a bottleneck. ParaView Catalyst integrates analysis and visualization directly into the simulation workflow, delivering in situ processing that eliminates the need for slow, storage-heavy post-processing. The result? You get immediate feedback, streamlined workflows, and new opportunities to steer simulations on the fly. Built […]

In today’s era of high-performance computing (HPC), organizations are generating data faster than ever before. Simulations that once took months can now be completed within weeks or even days on exascale systems. But there’s a problem: the process of turning that massive data into insight still lags behind.

Biomedical research today is generating increasingly vast and complex datasets along with an explosion of scientific literature that is overwhelming scientists’ ability to keep up. For example, PubMed is a free-to-access flagship scientific literature database maintained by NIH that has been growing exponentially for over 50 years (exceeding one million new publications per year over […]

Water as a Critical Resource for Energy Water is often overlooked as the hidden fuel for electricity generation. Hydropower (see Figure 1)  relies directly on river flows, but fossil fuel and nuclear facilities also consume large volumes of water for cooling and operations. Shortages or warmer stream temperatures can restrict production, and these challenges are […]

Each year, Supercomputing (SC) brings together the world’s leaders in high-performance computing to share groundbreaking advances in hardware, software, and scientific innovation. Kitware is proud to return as a long-time exhibitor, showcasing how interactive visual workflows are redefining what’s possible in HPC, AI, and large-scale simulation.

Supercomputing 2025

High-resolution simulations are producing massive datasets, but traditional post-processing pipelines struggle to keep up. Writing full timesteps to disk introduces significant I/O bottlenecks, and reducing output frequency compromises temporal fidelity and analysis resolution. Researchers need smarter, faster ways to analyze data while simulations are running.

Modern scientific and engineering applications increasingly rely on rich, interactive 3D visualization to interpret complex data. Traditional desktop deployments, however, create barriers, installation overhead, platform dependencies, and limited scalability. As workflows migrate to the web, there is a clear need for performant, browser-native solutions that can deliver the sophistication of desktop tools without their constraints.
