Ray tracing produces high-quality images with realistic reflections, shading, and perspective. Computational efficiency of rendering is achieved through design patterns for a grid service model fitted into a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). Learn how to configure and run Alchemi, a grid services model for rendering. Build a simple distributed scene-animation-rendering application using the Alchemi framework, deploy it with a Web services interface, and test your application with a simple animated scene.
