Abstract

Based on the characteristics of rendering phase, a performance-based policy for job assignment under Distributed Rendering Environments (DREs) is proposed. Firstly, a method of evaluating rendering nodes is designed by taking CPU ratio, RAM size, CPU occupation, RAM usage into account. Furthermore, the corresponding algorithm of job assignment for dividing rendering tasks into sub-tasks on available rendering nodes is presented. Whats more, this algorithms correctness is validated by three groups of experiments thereby which offers quantitative guide for optimal job assignment of rendering.
