Acceleration of Blender Cycles Path-Tracing Engine Using Intel Many Integrated Core Architecture
Original language description
This paper describes the acceleration of the most computationally intensive kernels of the Blender rendering engine, Blender Cy- cles, using Intel Many Integrated Core architecture (MIC). The pro- posed parallelization, which uses OpenMP technology, also improves the performance of the rendering engine when running on multi-core CPUs and multi-socket servers. Although the GPU acceleration is already implemented in Cycles, its functionality is limited. Our proposed imple- mentation for MIC architecture contains all features of the engine with improved performance. The paper presents performance evaluation for three architectures: multi-socket server, server with MIC (Intel Xeon Phi 5100p) accelerator and server with GPU accelerator (NVIDIA Tesla K20m).
