LINUX Cluster Possibilities in 3-D PHOTO Quality Imaging and Animation

چکیده
In this paper we present the PC cluster built at R.V. College of Engineering (with great help from the Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering). The structure of the cluster is described and the performance is evaluated by rendering of complex 3D Persistence of Vision (POV) images by the Ray-Tracing algorithm. Here, we propose an unexampled method to render such images, distributedly on a low cost scalable. Keywords—PC cluster, parallel computations, ray tracing, persistence of vision, rendering.

High Resolution Scalable Displays: Manufacturing and Use
Tiling projectors provides an effective and easy option to increase screen space. Differences in projectors' components however contribute to non-uniformities in illumination and colour and detract from image quality and useability. In collaboration with JVC we developed a compact, high-resolution, uniform, tiled projection computer display based on a single common light source. A single set of...
متن کاملPelicanHPC: A Linux Cluster Distribution for MPI-based Parallel Computing
This paper describes the PelicanHPC distribution of GNU/Linux, which can be used for rapid and simple creation of a cluster for MPI-based parallel computing. Di erent usage models are discussed, including short term ad-hoc clustering versus a long term, remotely administered cluster, and the possibilities for mixing real and virtualized hosts. Means of customizing the distribution for speci c t...
متن کاملMassively parallel visualization on linux clusters with Rocketeer Voyager
This paper describes Rocketeer Voyager, a versatile 3-D scientific visualization tool which processes in parallel a series of HDF output dumps from a large scale simulation. Rocketeer reads data defined on many types of grids and displays translucent surfaces and isosurfaces, vectors as glyphs, surface and 3-D meshes, etc. An interactive version is first used to view a few snapshots, orient the...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Analysis of Scoliosis Surgery Using Stereophotogrammetry
Scoliosis is a deformity characterized by coronal, sagittal and axial rotation of the spine. Surgical instrumentation (metal pins and rods) and eventual fusion of the spine are required in severe cases. Assessment of the deformity requires enough accuracy to allow proactive planning of individual interventions or implant designs. Conventional 2-D radiography and even 3-D CT scanning do not prov...
متن کاملHomogeneous and Heterogeneous Distributed Cluster Processing for Two and Three-Dimensional Viscoelastic Flows
A finite element study of two and three-dimensional incompressible viscoelastic flows in a planar lid-driven cavity and concentric rotating cylinders is presented. The hardware platforms consist of both homogeneous and heterogeneous clusters of workstations. A semi-implicit time-stepping TaylorGalerkin scheme is employed using the message passing mechanism provided by the Parallel Virtual Machi...
