<br>Yes, and it's AWESOME. It saved me DAYS on some volume rendered movies I<br>made. Brian Wylie set me straight a while back on the vtk list. Take a<br>look at the attached pdf.<br><br><a href="http://public.kitware.com/pipermail/vtkusers/2006-May/085278.html">

The approach used is a client/server separation, load balancing is achieved by a kd tree (D3) distrbution and the final image is composited by the server hardware alpha blending... Am I right?
<br>Is MPI used? <br>It's possible that the ordered compositing uses the Sandia's IceT library?<br></div><br>Cheers<br>Mario<br></div>
