Exploring the Spectrum of Dynamic Scheduling Algorithms for Scalable Distributed-MemoryRay Tracing

This paper extends and evaluates a family of dynamic ray scheduling algorithms that can be performed in-situ on large distributed memory parallel computers. The key idea is to consider both ray state and data accesses when scheduling ray computations. We compare three instances of this family of alg...
