Abstract:
1. An asynchronous computing and rendering system, comprising: a data storage unit that provides storage for processing a large-scale data set organized in accordance to data subregions; a computing cluster containing a parallel plurality of asynchronous computing machines that provide compute results based on the data subregions; a rendering cluster containing a parallel multiplicity of asynchronous rendering machines, each separate from each of the parallel plurality of asynchronous computing machines of the computing cluster, coupled to the asynchronous computing machines, wherein each rendering machine renders a subset of the data subregions; wherein a proxy geometry is employed in providing compute and rendering results of selected data subregions and each rendering machine calculates an intersection of the proxy geometry with data subregions it has to process; and a data interpretation platform coupled to the asynchronous rendering machines that provides user interaction and rendered viewing capabilities for the large-scale data set.
