It has been pointed out that a huge amount of data which exceeds human ability of handling information is produced by next generation supercomputer, and method or methodology to extract useful information from such data should be considered. Several concepts of very large scale visualization are proposed in this situation. Most of them are based on high-performance computing techniques or highly-efficient devices for computer graphics. In this paper, a flexible visualization methodology based on software agents is introduced. A possibility that human-agent collaboration helps to reduce the difficulty of handling huge data is described.
