Abstract

This paper describes the CINECA supercomputing environment in which many graphical applications are being realized using local network facilities. The general guidelines of a CNR project on scientific visualization promoted with the cooperation among several Italian research groups are mentioned here. Moreover, the applications considered in this project are provided with graphical workstations remotely connected to a supercomputer via a high speed network.
