Visualization and Real Virtuality

The RES (Spanish Supercomputing Network) coordinated by BSC, the CeSViMa and in  cooperation with the Univesty of Zaragoza will organize the technical training titled Virtualization and Real Virtuality.

Date: 
Wednesday, 14 December, 2011 (All day) to Thursday, 15 December, 2011 (All day)
Objectives: 

Researchers and companies can access to the RES resources and develop their research. A good way of showing the results in order to let the experts improve their knowledge and experience and to make it more understandable for the general public will be the Vitualization and Real Virtuality construction of models showing their outcome.

This seminar will be a workshop in which the different node technicians will learn the operation of a Virtualization and Real Virtuality (V&RV) device recently available to the RES community.

The attendance could also be useful to researchers because they will learn about the V&RV device and they will be able to consider the usefulness and applications of the simulations that can be developed.
