The following is a list of features collected in the months before the VTK-m 1.0 release that are on the short path to be completed.

Feature Status
Settling of the core interface Other than little things and filters, the core interface is pretty well set.
  • Rob has a question about the "dimensionality" of the cell sets. That is supposed to be the topological dimensions of the cells. This would require all the cells having the same dimensionality, which is not really being honored. This is causing some problems. Jeremy and Rob need talk about this.
  • There is a similar question about the "order" on the fields. Right now, it is not used, and we should remove it. In the future, as we implement higher order cells, we will probably have to represent the interpolation as basis functions rather than
Standardization of "filters" Rob is ready to merge his first pass of filters into master.
Support worklet operations that are not one-to-one output Done
Basic file I/O Done.
Basic rendering Rendering is almost ready. Working out some build issues on the dashboard.
Clean up Doxygen Need to get documentation syncing nightly. Chuck looking into this.
User's Guide Behind. Trying to catch up. Making some progress.
Green dashboard
  • Still have problems with some CUDA dashboards
    • Some may have been resolved
    • There are issues with dejagore running out of memory
  • There have been some interop failures. - Rob thinks they are fixed.
    • Probably actually an X-windows issue. Chuck will look into this. Not currently at the top of his priority.
  • Some further output issues on Windows (see delve dashboards e.g. https://open.cdash.org/viewTest.php?onlyfailed&buildid=4123995)
    • Need to get the buildbot tests running nightly to check up on this issue.
  • Some timeout issues on renar (e.g. https://open.cdash.org/viewTest.php?onlyfailed&buildid=4123644). Could be caused by JIT of CUDA kernels or might be because multiple things are running.
    • Some issues have been found and will be worked out.
Prototype VTK/ParaView/VisIt integration

(Technically not part of the release, but should indicate we have viable components.)

* Eric Brugger has made some progress on integrating VTK-m into VisIt. He has an initial implementation and it is working pretty well so far. He has lately added further cell type support (particularly unstructured grids).
  • Rob working on VTK/VTK-m filter integration. Can now move data between VTK and VTK-m
