Book Description
This dissertation addresses a growing challenge of visual analytics for data-driven science by presenting new scalable visualization algorithms based on scalable streaming and video-driven approaches. Drawing data from modeling, simulation, sensing and data fusion to deliver a starting point for scientific discovery, we present a collaborative visual analytics framework providing the abilities to capture, compress, transport, decode, synchronize, display and interact with data at a massive scale on high resolution collaborative display environments. This framework allows scientists to connect to data when it is needed, where it is need, and in a format suitable for scientific discovery while providing a means to interactively define the processing and filtering parameters that guide visual interrogation. The presented framework uses low-latency video streaming and distributed video playback to display content on tiled display walls from a variety of sources and at very high resolutions. These techniques convert desktop-bound applications into low-bandwidth video streams, allowing them to be transmitted to and displayed on tiled display walls at multiple local and remote sites. This allows scientists from around the world to collaborate in real-time, using the tools and applications they are familiar with from desktops, wireless laptops, and tablets while leveraging high-resolution display walls to organize and compare all of this visual information. Scalable display methods are presented that use distributed decoding and rendering to display multiple high-resolution data streams simultaneously on tiled display walls. This is applied to live collaborative video streams, to cinema quality 4K resolution video, to stereoscopic telepresence, to extremely high resolution video, and to large particle datasets from molecular dynamics simulations. The combination of this scalable display method with the bandwidth reduction achieved by using compressed streams allows for the display and analysis of data at scales an order of magnitude larger than what were possible with previous techniques.

Supporting Scalable and Resilient Video Streaming Applications in Evolving Networks

Book Description
While the demand for video streaming services has risen rapidly in recent years, supporting video streaming service to a large number of receivers still remains a challenging task. Issues of video streaming in the Internet, such as scalability, and reliability are still under extensive research. Recently proposed network contexts such as overlay networks, and mobile ad hoc networks pose even tougher challenges. This thesis focuses on supporting scalable video streaming applications under various network environments. More specifically, this thesis investigates the following problems: i) Server selection in replicated batching video on demand (VoD) systems: we find out that, to optimize the user perceived latency, it is vital to consider the server state information and channel allocation schemes when making server selection decisions. We develop and evaluate a set of server selection algorithms that use increasingly more information. ii) Scalable live video streaming with time shifting and video patching: we consider the problem of how to enable continuous live video streaming to a large group of clients in cooperative but unreliable overlay networks. We design a server-based architecture which uses a combined technique of time-shifting video server and P2P video patching. iii) A Cooperative patching architecture in overlay networks: We design a cooperative patching architecture which shifts video patching responsibility completely to the client side. An end-host retrieves lost data from other end-hosts within the same multicast group. iv) V3: a vehicle to vehicle video streaming architecture: We propose V3, an architecture to provide live video streaming service to driving vehicles through vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) networks. V3 incorporates a novel signaling mechanism to continuously trigger video sources to send video data back to the receiver. It also adopts a store-carry-and-forward approach to transmit video data in a partitioned network environment. We also develop a multicasting framework that enables live video streaming applications from multiple sources to multiple receivers in V2V networks. A message integration scheme is used to suppress the signaling overhead, and a two-level tree-based routing approach is adopted to forward the video data.

Book Description
Methods, Processes, and Tools for Collaboration "The time has come to fundamentally rethink how we handle the building of knowledge in biomedical sciences today. This book describes how the computational sciences have transformed into being a key knowledge broker, able to integrate and operate across divergent data types." Bryn Williams-Jones, Associate Research Fellow, Pfizer The pharmaceutical industry utilizes an extended network of partner organizations in order to discover and develop new drugs, however there is currently little guidance for managing information and resources across collaborations. Featuring contributions from the leading experts in a range of industries, Collaborative Computational Technologies for Biomedical Research provides information that will help organizations make critical decisions about managing partnerships, including: Serving as a user manual for collaborations Tackling real problems from both human collaborative and data and informatics perspectives Providing case histories of biomedical collaborations and technology-specific chapters that balance technological depth with accessibility for the non-specialist reader A must-read for anyone working in the pharmaceuticals industry or academia, this book marks a major step towards widespread collaboration facilitated by computational technologies.

Medicine Meets Virtual Reality 16
Author: James D. Westwood

ISBN: 1586038222
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 596
Book Description
We humans are tribal, grouping ourselves by a multitude of criteria: physical, intellectual, political, emotional, etc. The Internet and its auxiliary technologies have enabled a novel dimension in tribal behavior during our recent past. This growing connectivity begs the question: will individuals and their communities come together to solve some very urgent global problems? At MMVR, we explore ways to harness information technology to solve healthcare problems - and in the industrialized nations we are making progress. In the developing world however, things are more challenging. Massive urban poverty fuels violence and misery. Will global networking bring a convergence of individual and tribal problem-solving? Recently, a barrel-shaped water carrier that rolls along the ground was presented, improving daily life for many people. Also the One Laptop per Child project is a good example of how the industrialized nations can help the developing countries. They produce durable and simple laptops which are inexpensive to produce. At MMVR, we focus on cutting-edge medical technology, which is generally pretty expensive. While the benefits of innovation trickle downward, from the privileged few to the broader masses, we should expand this trickle into a flood. Can breakthrough applications in stimulation, visualization, robotics, and informatics engender tools as ingeniously as the water carrier or laptop? With some extra creativity, we can design better healthcare for the developing world too.
