Links to Online Dataset Collections: this page provides a list of online datasets and related resources categorized by discipline, with a brief description of their sources and purpose.

Prototype Video Captioning Service: Video captioning is becoming an important component of a fully accessible web site serving digital video content for university curriculum. Explore this new exciting tool that allows you to import a digital video and accompanying transcript and output a QuickTime Text Track for subsequent merging with the digital video.

3D Watersheds: This is a set of interactive 3D flythroughs of the seven San Diego County Watersheds developed as a demonstration of web-based 3D modeling and visualization for educational purposes. These modules were presented at Siggraph 2003 in San Diego.

CS575 Visualization Lecture: This is a lecture given annually by ECCSE Staff Scientist Jeff Sale to students in ECCSE Director Kris Stewart's CS575-Supercomputing in the Sciences course.

Visualization for Education: This is a document derived from the CS575 Lecture, intended to serve as a resource for users interested in educational applications of visualization resources

Tools for analysis of Network performance available from the following organizations:

NLANR Tools for analysising network traffic:

Cichlid: Cichlid is a visualization tool for rapidly visualizing arbitrary data sets in high-quality 3D, while allowing the viewer to explore and interact with the data sets in real time. It was designed with remote data generation and machine independence in mind; data is transmitted via TCP from any number of sources (data servers) to the visualization code (the client), which displays them concurrently.
TCPtune: It is used to let the host support and utilize extensions to basic TCP/IP.So the host can take advantage of today's high speed networks.

CAIDA Tools for analysis of network performance:

Otter: Otter is a new CAIDA tool for visualizing arbitrary network data that can be expressed as a set of nodes, links or paths.
Mantra: It is a tool for Visualizating the Internet multicast infrastructure.
