lang="EN-US">The Interactive Engineering Technologies group
at the Fraunhofer Institute for Computer Graphics Research
(IGD) in Darmstadt, Germany pursues applied technology
research in the area of design, analysis, visualization and
interpretation. Our research enhances human-computer
interaction and supports the user’s workflow using
computer graphics technologies. This simplifies decisions

of simulations. We leverage current GPU computing methods
and integrate modeling, simulation and visualization. In
this way, we shorten the design process and enable users to
directly manipulate simulations.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

context of an interdisciplinary European research project
regarding the combination of inâ€situ processing and
queryâ€based visualization (QBV) with modern OpenGL and
GPUâ€based techniques for the interactive analysis of
extremely large-scale simulations. Employing advanced
features of stateâ€ofâ€theâ€art graphics cards and modern
OpenGL programming will allow for new result representations
and faster image generation of complex scenes while
maintaining interactivity and intelligent analysis using
graphics hardware on a local workstation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
