This Common Capability covers the need for presenting on-line visualisation of job execution results, such as rendered job data, simulation results, etc. through the portal.
Since the type of visualisation may be very different depending on the application type, the common component can provide a link outside the portal (for instance for jobs that can be visualised), or alternatively, it should be able to launch an application and present it from within the portal environment.
We identified different needs for job visualisation, depending on the type of application. Two examples of the identified needs that this Common Capability should cover is the visualisation of rendered construction plans, and the graphical representation of optimisation results.
The on-line visualisation of job execution results will increase the overall system value, as this is considered an important functionality by the users, saving them time and effort.
The Job Visualisation Common Capability interacts with the JMSC to visualise the output data of a job that is just completed.
The File Management Common Capability interacts with Job Visualisation when it is necessary to upload, download or specify a data file, i.e. job results files.
