Bio:

• SIGGRAPH 1998

  Lloyd A. Treinish is a research staff member in the Visualization Solutions group at the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, NY. He works on techniques architectures and applications of data visualization and methods of data management for a wide variety of disciplines. This includes a focus on earth, environmental and space sciences. His research interests range from visualization systems, data models, and perceptual rule-based tools to study of atmospheric and space physics phenomena, and cartography. This work involves the development and application of IBM Visualization Data Explorer, and the implementation of interactive tools for correlative visualization of data from diverse sources. Recently, these efforts have expanded to include WWW- based access and dissemination of data and visualizations for both research and operational utilization.  

  SIGGRAPH 1996

  Lloyd A. Treinish is a research staff member in the Data Explorer group at the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, NY. He works on techniques, architectures and applications of data visualization and methods of data management for a wide variety of scientific disciplines with a particular focus on earth, environmental and space sciences. His research interests range from computer graphics, data storage structures, data representation methodologies, data base management, computer user interfaces, and data analysis algorithms to middle atmosphere electrodynamics, planetary astronomy  and climatology. In particular, he is interested in generic or discipline- independent techniques for the storage, manipulation, analysis and display of  data, and has, for example, applied these ideas to the study of global atmospheric dynamics and ozone depletion.  

  SIGGRAPH 1993

  Lloyd A. Treinish is a research staff member in the Visualization Systems Group of the Computer Science Department at IBM’s Thomas J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, NY. He works on techniques, architectures and applications of data visualization for a wide variety of scientific disciplines within this group, which is the group that developed the IBM POWER Visualization System and the IBM Visualization Data Explorer. His research interests range from computer graphics, data storage structures. data representation methodologies, database management, computer user interfaces, and data analysis algorithms to middle atmosphere electrodynamics, planetary astronomy and climatology. In particular, Lloyd is interested in generic or discipline-independent techniques for the storage, manipulation, analysis and display of data, and has applied these ideas to the study of global atmospheric dynamics and ozone depletion. Earlier he did similar work in the development of advanced scientific data systems, including studying space and atmospheric phenomena, for over a  decade at the National Space Science Data Center of NASA’s Goddard Space Aight Center in Greenbelt, MD.

  A 1978 graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with an S.M. and an S.B. in physics, and an S.B. in earth and planetary sciences, Lloyd has been at IBM since April 1990. He is a member of the IEEE Computer Society (!EEE-CS), the IEEE-CS Technical Committee on Computer Graphics, the IEEE-CS Visualization Conference Committee, the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), ACM SIGGRAPH, the National Computer Graphics Association, the Planetary Society, and the American Geophysical Union. He also served as technical liaison for global information services for the SIGGRAPH ’92 conference.
