Abstract

We present an environment for executing engineering simulations and visualizing results in a Virtual Environment. The work is motivated by the necessity of finding effective solutions for collaboration of team workers during the execution of complex Petroleum Engineering projects. By means of a Scientific Workflow Management System users are able to orchestrate the execution of different simulations as workflow tasks that can be arranged in many ways according to project requirements. Within a workflow, as its last step, the most interesting cases can be selected for visualization in a distributed collaborative session.
