Design of PCcluster distributed parallel rendering system based on InfiniBand
Fu Min Xu · Journal of Sichuan University · 2015
To solve the imbalance and network congestion problem for sort-first parallel rendering system,a new approach for PC cluster distributed parallel rendering under InfiniBand high speed network was proposed.This approach added display nodes to undertake the scene display task.Used a improved dynamic load balancing algorithm based on rendering history to deal with the system's imbalance problem.At the same time this system developed a synchronism control strategy based on the InfiniBand message transfer mechanism.The experiment result shows that the new approach can maintain the scene consistency and integrity,Compare to the original architecture,It can improve the system's frame rate and reduce the network traffic consumption.
