Abstract
National Center for High-performance Computing (NCHC) built a render farm that provides a platform for the industry to render their work in a much more efficient timeframe, allowing for both central processing unit (CPU) and graphics processing unit (GPU) rendering. The throughput has also been greatly improved to support complex and large scale simulations. The main goal of this session is to introduce the improvements and new applications of NCHC’s render farm.
