Participants in this tutorial first will be introduced to the state-of-the-art in parallel programming and a number of the most commonly used languages will be introduced, including pThreads, OpenMP, Thread-Building Blocks and MPI.
1 include: -- Use of more-efficient Pthreads parallel rendering; previous versions used process-based parallelism; -- Two-pass transparency for improved appearance of transparent objects; -- Frame Decomposition (DPLEX mode), which allows multiple windows, pipes and channels to be combined to improve the frame rate in the final scene; -- Multiple input devices, such as Head-tracking and Wand devices, via VRCO's trackd software interface; -- Support for new format MPK 1.
Microware's threads implementation follows the widely used POSIX pthreads API.
