Abstract

The computational Grid is a promising platform for the deployment of large-scale scientific and engineering application. This paper presents a Quasi-3D (almost true 3D) animation system using either 2D geometric shapes or raster images (cels) as input primitives. Rendering high-quality computer images requires intensive computation, and therefore a large amount of time. To speed up the rendering process, a Grid environment has been constructed with Globus and Condor in which a large number of animation frames can be rendered simultaneously using disparate Grid resources. The results show that the rendering performance has been highly improved using the Grid environment.
