The Render Farm
is a high performance computer system, which actually processes high quality
information. Owing to its complexity and performance capability, the farm
system is used to perform complex process and at very high speed. The system is
a combination of interconnect computers, which enhances the achievement of
complex processing. The system uses parallel processing when running a job,
where different computers (processors) carry out the tasks of the same job at
the same time. This is a processing mode which highly increases the speed of
processing and simplifies complex task. The farm system has actually come up as
a solution to the complex animation processing. This has made the farm system a
very useful resource in production of films and movies. The production of films
and movies involves many images, which are very complex and involve complex
processing.
Nowadays instead of drawing the images by hand, the
user or designer is at liberty to use the more convenient Render Farm. The farm
system is very fast, reliable, more accurate, effective, and efficient. The
artists and studio are now using the farm system to render their films and
movies conveniently.
As earlier stated, the system is an interconnection of
a number of computers, with powerful processors. These computers work together
as a unit computer. There is a combined effect of the interconnected computers.
The job to be processed is broken down into smaller tasks. Once the user
submits a job, the job is first broken down into smaller tasks. The software
evaluates the jobs and then determines how it would be executed. It determines
which functions are supposed to be executed at the same time and which
functions require data from others. Those functions to be executed at the same
time are held together as a task. The breaking down of the job into smaller
tasks goes on until all the functions are accommodated.
After the tasks are created, the system assigns the different
tasks to different computers at the same time. This is know as parallel
processing, where functions from the same job ruin concurrently as if they are
different programs. This happens such that functions which would have been
executed later are run at the same time as others which would have run first.
This processing mode makes the process to be done faster, since many functions
from the same job run concurrently. Secondly, complex processes are easily
managed. This is archived by breaking down a very complex job into small
manageable tasks. These tasks are then run as independent jobs. A job which
would have been very complex is simplified by breaking it down and then running
it at the simplified level.
This architecture and processing mode of the Render Farm makes it a very suitable
tool of production of films and movies. It makes the system a high capacity
one, capable of producing high resolution animations and images. It enables the
production of computer
generated imagery. The system has the ability to produce audio, videos and
images in their real form. This has been
enhanced by the complexity of the farm system and the way processing is done.
The artists and other designers or movies and films do not need to worry
now. Al the processing facilities are on
their door steps.
