Abstract: This paper describes algorithms that allow multiple hierarchical radiosity solvers to work on the same radiosity solution in parallel. We have developed a system based on a group iterative approach that repeatedly: 1) partitions patches into groups, 2) distributes a copy of each group to a slave processor which updates radiosities for all patches in that group, and 3) merges the updates back into a master solution. The primary advantage of this approach is that separate instantiations of a... (Update)

...on clusters of workstations. Funkhouser describes an algorithm where multiple hierarchical radiosity solvers work in parallel [Fun96]. A master process distributes sets of polygons over the set of workstations to determine an approximate and partial radiosity solution....
.... Graphics Clusters have long been used for parallelizing traditionally noninteractive graphics tasks such as ray tracing, radiosity [5, 25], and volume rendering [6] Other cluster parallel rendering efforts have largely concentrated on exploiting inter frame parallelism...
