| Abstract |
VisIt is a richly featured visualization tool that is used to visualize
some of the largest simulations ever run. The scale of these simulations
requires that optimizations are incorporated into every operation VisIt
performs. But the set of applicable optimizations that VisIt can perform
is dependent on the types of operations being done. Complicating the issue,
VisIt has a plugin capability that allows new, unforeseen components to be
added, making it even harder to determine which optimizations can be applied.
We introduce the concept of a contract to the standard data flow network
design. This contract enables each component of the data flow network
to modify the set of optimizations used. In addition, the contract allows
for new components to be accommodated gracefully within
VisIt's data flow network system.
