Visualization / Image Processing
Some of the application pages below include instructions on how to run the application on the iCSF GPU node (
jabberwock). Doing so will often give much better graphics performance, making the application feel more responsive and easier to use when viewing large models (e.g., finite element meshes, chemical models, X-Ray tomography 3D datasets etc.) For screenshots of some of these applications please see the
iCSF GPU node page.
