Parallelizing Pre-rendering Computations on a Net Juggler PC Cluster

Net Juggler, an open source library developed at LIFO, turns a commodity component cluster running the VR Juggler platform on each node into a single VR Juggler image cluster. Net Juggler parallelizes rendering computations for immersive projection environments but pre-rendering computations are redundant. In this paper, we present how a classical parallelization of the pre-rendering computations can be deployed and controlled with Net Juggler. This approach is demonstrated with an interactive fluid flow simulation. 1
