The Facility for Education and Research |
|
|
| The IML includes a large-scale three-dimensional immersive display and an intelligent
modeling support system, both for educational purposes
and for studying "research into artifact engineering using intelligent modeling". |
# Large-Scale Three-Dimensional Immersive Display : CABIN
The large-scale three-dimensional immersive display(CABIN),
which consists of five screens (three walls,
floor and ceiling) generates an immersive virtual
reality space. In this environment, the user
is able to experience computer simulated worlds,
such as a microscopic world or a world with extreme
environmental conditions. |
 |
# Intelligent Modeling Support System
The intelligent modeling support system, which
consists mainly of an IBM SP2 parallel supercomputer,
conducts leading-edge simulations of life science,
material and cultural sciences with the aid of
the latest parallel computer resources. These
advanced numerical simulations, together with
our multimedia and virtual reality technology,
enables trailblazing studies. New numerical simulation
techniques will also be established in the massively
parallel computer environment, and these are
expected to be the mainstream of the next generation
of computer simulations. |
 |
# Project Promotion Room
The room for promoting the research projects. Researchers
with various backgrounds can use this room in
advance their projects, interchanging ideas and
discussing them with other members of the facility. |
 |
# Meeting Room
The room for discussion. There are white boards
on each wall, so discussions can take place and
be illustrated anywhere in the room. |
