Among other advantages, the method is efficient in its use of memory, preserves the dynamic range of the simulations, and provides excellent image quality. Preliminary results of large-scale parallel rendering of particle data sets using point sprites are presented in this poster. Performance and scalability are evaluated on a GPU-based computer cluster using datasets of up to 3200^3 particles at resolutions of up to 6144x3072 pixels.
