This proposal will be awarded using funds made available by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5), and meets the requirements established in Section 2 of the White House Memorandum entitled, Ensuring Responsible Spending of Recovery Act Funds, dated March 20, 2009. I also affirm, as the cognizant Program Officer, that the proposal does not support projects described in Section 1604 of Division A of the Recovery Act. Enabling Transformational Science and Engineering through Integrated Collaborative Visualization and Data Analysis for the National User CommunityVisualization is one of the most important and commonly used methods of analyzing and interpreting digital assets. For many types of computational research, it is the only viable means of extracting information and developing understanding from data. However, non-visual data analysis techniques, statistical analysis, data mining, data reduction, etc. also play integral roles in many areas of knowledge discovery. This award will, for the first time, provide a comprehensive suite of large-scale visualization and data analysis (VDA) services to the open science community. By leveraging existing tools and techniques, integrating state-of-the-art research products, and providing exceptional user support, we will deploy a national, general-purpose visualization and data analysis discovery environment. The deliverables include:o a remote visualization resource of extreme capability (Longhorn):o 256 nodes (2048 processor cores, 24 Tflops peak) with 512 GPUs, 12 terabytes of aggregate memory, 200 terabytes of local system storageo tightly integrated with Ranger (the TeraGrid's inaugural Track2 system) to handle digital assets at the largest scale (and potentially future TACC HPC systems); 1. a comprehensive collection of open source and commercial end-user VDA software tools; 2. expert visualization support, including advanced interactive user support and training, from a team comprising many of the leading visualization researchers in the US; and 3. a framework for rapidly integrating new visualization technologies from leading research teams (including our own) to increase user capabilities throughout the project.aborative Visualization and Data Analysis for the National User Community

该提案将使用2009年《美国恢复和再投资法》（公法111-5）提供的资金颁发，并符合白宫备忘录第2节中建立的要求，确保了2009年3月20日的负责支出的恢复法案的支出。 通过综合协作可视化和对国家用户社区的数据分析促进转型科学和工程，是分析和解释数字资产的最重要且常用的方法之一。对于许多类型的计算研究，它是提取信息并从数据中发展理解的唯一可行手段。但是，非视觉数据分析技术，统计分析，数据挖掘，减少数据等也在许多知识发现领域中起着不可或缺的作用。该奖项将首次向开放的科学界提供全面的大规模可视化和数据分析（VDA）服务。通过利用现有工具和技术，整合最先进的研究产品并提供卓越的用户支持，我们将部署国家通用可视化和数据分析发现环境。 The deliverables include:o a remote visualization resource of extreme capability (Longhorn):o 256 nodes (2048 processor cores, 24 Tflops peak) with 512 GPUs, 12 terabytes of aggregate memory, 200 terabytes of local system storageo tightly integrated with Ranger (the TeraGrid's inaugural Track2 system) to handle digital assets at the largest scale (and potentially future TACC HPC系统）; 1。全面的开源和商业最终用户VDA软件工具的集合； 2。专家可视化支持，包括由美国许多领先的可视化研究人员组成的团队的高级交互式用户支持和培训；和3。一个快速整合来自领先研究团队（包括我们自己的）的新可视化技术的框架，以提高整个项目的用户功能。国家用户社区的可视化和数据分析
