초록

Rendering is widely used for visual effects in animations and movies. Although rendering is computing-intensive, we observe that it accompanies heavy I/O because of large input data. This becomes technical hurdles for multi-node rendering performed on public cloud nodes. To reduce the overhead of data transmission in multi-node rendering, this paper analyzes the characteristics of rendering workloads, and presents the cooperative caching scheme for multi-node rendering. Our caching scheme has the function of synchronization between original data in local storage and cached data in rendering nodes, and the cached data are shared between multiple rendering nodes. We perform measurement experiments in real system environments and show that the proposed cooperative caching scheme improves the conventional caching scheme used in the network file system by 27% on average.
