The MAGIC Testbed MAGIC-II Overview u u The MAGIC-II scenario is based on applications such as mission planning and crisis management u u Application requirements – –locate, process, display real-time and/or archived datasets on-the-fly – –fuse multiple types of data (e.g., weather, terrain) – –be able to transfer large volumes of data for interactive visualization – –support a range of user capabilities (e.g., large command center, or a mobile user) u u The objective of MAGIC-II is to build on work and facilities of MAGIC-I to solve the scaling problems associated with these application scenarios
