10 Jul 2007 Ray tracing produces high-quality images with realistic reflections, shading, and perspective. Computational efficiency of
rendering is achieved through design patterns for a grid service model fitted into a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). Learn how to
configure and run Alchemi — a grid services model for rendering — build a simple distributed
scene-animation-rendering application using the Alchemi framework, deploy it with a Web services interface, and
test your application with a simple animated scene. In this tutorial
Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) provides a convenient
cross-platform Internet-scale mechanism for composing software components.
Alchemi is a Microsoft® .NET-based system and framework for building and
deploying grid applications with C# that provides a
Web services interface to the application. This tutorial provides step-by-step
instructions for building a Web services-enabled grid application that renders
3-D computer graphics (CG) animations using Alchemi and
the Persistence of Vision Raytracer (POV-Ray). In addition, it discusses these concepts in
the context of grid computing and SOA. You will learn how to configure and run Alchemi, build
a simple distributed scene animation-rendering application using the Alchemi
framework, deploy it with a Web services interface, then test your application
with a simple animated scene.
Prerequisites
This was written for those with an introductory-level
familiarity with Microsoft Visual Studio® 2005, C#, and Microsoft ASP.NET.
System requirements
To complete all the steps, you need a computer with Microsoft
Windows® XP Professional and Internet Information Services (IIS),
along with Visual Studio 2005 and the Microsoft .NET V2.0 framework, including
ASP.NET V2.0. You need at least 500 MB of free disk space (depending on how many
animation frames you want to render), Internet access to
download
Alchemi, and access to install and run applications on the
machine.
