Using OpenDX to Teach the Concept of Visualization Pipeline
Anna Perduta, Roman Putanowicz · 2016
Visualization of experimental data and results of numerical simulations belongs to most basic skills that need to be mastered by students at undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate levels. When faced with many visualization techniques and available tools, deep understanding of the fundamental concepts, such as visualization pipeline, is the necessary foundation for using data visualization effectively. The article shows how concept of pipeline processing can be explained to students and how the tool such as OpenDX, with its visual programming capabilities, can be used to teach basic visualization concepts and techniques.
