  • ON DISTRIBUTED NETWORK RENDERING SYSTEMS 1. Introduction the Establishment and Performance of a Distributed Computer Rendering S
    ON DISTRIBUTED NETWORK RENDERING SYSTEMS DEAN BRUTON The School of Architecture, Landscape Architecture and Urban Design, The University of Adelaide SA 5005 Australia [email protected] Abstract. This paper reports an investigation of the establishment and performance of a distributed computer rendering system for advanced computer graphics production within a centralized university information technology environment. It explores the proposal that the use of distributed computer rendering systems in industry and universities offers synergies for university-industry collaborative agreements. Claims that cluster computing and rendering systems are of benefit for computer graphics productions are to be tested within a standard higher education environment. A small scale distributed computer rendering system was set up to investigate the development of the optimum use of intranet and internet systems for computer generated feature film production and architectural visualisation. The work entailed using monitoring, comparative performance analysis and interviews with relevant stakeholders. The research provides important information for practitioners and the general public and heralds the initiation of a Centre for Visualization and Animation research within the School of Architecture, Landscape Architecture and Urban Design, University of Adelaide. Keywords. Render farm, processing, computer graphics, animation. 1. Introduction The establishment and performance of a distributed computer rendering system for advanced computer graphics production within a centralized university information technology environment may seem an easy task for those who have some experience in the IT industry. From an academic point of view (Bettis, 2005), it seems an attractive proposition because the idea that idle computers can be utilised for digital media production or for other intensive 66 D.

In a 2019 Epic Games and Burning Glass Technologies report1 on the US job market, we found that competency in 3D graphics is in enormous demand across multiple industries, representing a robust market of more than 315,000 job postings. The use of real-time rendering 3D software is growing exponentially, with demand for these skills increasing 601% faster than the Epic Games and Burning Glass collaborated job market overall. In the previous report, once again in 2020 to further research the we also found that supply of real-time labor demand for 3D graphics skills—this 3D-proficient employees is not keeping up time broadening the scope internationally.
