Name : paraview Product : Fedora 12 Version : 3.6.2 Release : 1.fc12 URL : http://www.paraview.org/ Summary : Parallel visualization application Description : ParaView is an application designed with the need to visualize large data sets in mind. The goals of the ParaView project include the following: * Develop an open-source, multi-platform visualization application. * Support distributed computation models to process large data sets. * Create an open, flexible, and intuitive user interface. * Develop an extensible architecture based on open standards. ParaView runs on distributed and shared memory parallel as well as single processor systems and has been successfully tested on Windows, Linux and various Unix workstations and clusters. Under the hood, ParaView uses the Visualization Toolkit as the data processing and rendering engine and has a user interface written using a unique blend of Tcl/Tk and C++. NOTE: The version in this package has NOT been compiled with MPI support. Install the paraview-mpi package to get MPI support. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This is a minor patch release which includes a few critical bug fixes and two exciting new features. ParaView's Python interface was revamped; an exciting new extension to the interface is Python trace. The goal is to generate human readable, not overly verbose, Python scripts that mimic a user's actions in the GUI. The "Python Trace" article in the October Source, discusses this functionality in greater detail. ParaView 3.6.2 also includes a collection of statistical algorithms to compute: descriptive statistics (mean, variance, min, max, skewness, kurtosis); compute contingency tables; perform k-means analysis; examine correlations between arrays; and perform principal component analysis on arrays. For more information about these filters, please visit the ParaView Wiki and search for "Statistical Analysis" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Jan 4 2010 Orion Poplawski <[email protected]> - 3.6.2-1 - Update to 3.6.2 * Thu Nov 19 2009 Orion Poplawski <[email protected]> - 3.6.1-7 - New location for openmpi (fixes FTBFS bug #539179) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
