This application currently saturates any network given to it, so the scientists work around the limitations. 10Gbps networking can be utilized immediately.

Based on their SC'2001 work that won the Gordon Bell
Prize and the Bandwidth Challenge, these scientists
are running an astrophysics simulation at a USA
supercomputing center and then computing detailed
remote visualizations of the results. One part of
the demo shows remote online visualization - as the
simulation continues, each time step's raw data is
streamed in parallel over the transatlantic network
connection to a Linux cluster in Amsterdam for
parallel volume rendering. The other part demonstrates
remote off-line visualization using advanced grid
technologies to efficiently access data on remote
data servers, as well as new rendering techniques
for network-adaptive visualizations.
