what is rendering
process of generating a 2D or 3D graphic and exporting it to an image file - CGI
adding effects in video editing
what does the rendering process involve
complex mathematics, solution of the rendering equation
limitations of a single core processor system
cannot perform demanding tasks / cannot run complex mathematical models efficiently
what is multi core processor system
two or more integrated circuits are mounted on the motherboard
adv of multicore system
runs a program much faster than single core
disadv of multicore system
more expensive
what can be a disadv of having multiple GPUs
can generate disturbing noise, high temperatures -> doesn’t necessarily improve performance
