Image Rendering For Grid Technology

ABSTRACT In this paper, we propose a volume rendering method using grid computing for large-scale volume image. Grid computing is attractive because medical institutions and research facilities often have a large number of idle computers. A large-scale volume image is divided into sub-volumes and the sub-volumes are rendered using grid computing. When using grid computing, different computers rarely have the same processor speeds. Thus the return order of results rarely matches the sending order. However order is vital when combining results to create a final image. Job-Scheduling is important…
