Abstract :
Using the Internet for distributed graphics rendering has long been a dream of many image and animation producers. In this paper, the Alchemi and blender are combined to construct a grid-based graphics rendering system. A grid scheduling using ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm and fuzzy reputation (FR) aggregation to improve the decision of scheduling is proposed, and a SAH-based kd-Tree used for the rendering process of blender as well. This method, which optimizes rendering with less time spent in the rendering process, in most cases does not affect the final quality of images obtained.
