VisWeek is the first forum for visualisation advances for academia, government, and industry. This year, more than 800 people went to Atlantic City to present and share new ideas in the fields of scientific and information visualisation.
Kitware, the company that develops and maintain the official version of both the VTK library and the ParaView software, invited the Collaviz project at its BOF. Stephane Ploix (EDF R&D) presented the project, hightligthing the aim to create an end-user oriented product, that meets industry standards. Both the developer and the demonstrator communities where presented, and the focus on the industry issues, like security, use of existing infrastructures or data management was clearly recieved as an original and necessary approach.
