Tech Talk: (MORE) PS3-related Ramblings
  • Presenter: Jonathan Adamczewski
  • Venue: Centenary 473
  • Date: Fri. September 11 @ 14:00

Last time he rambled about drawing fractals with a PS3. This time, hes rambling about the same thing.

Mandelbrot fractals are embarrassingly easy to parallelise, and while they look pretty, drawing them quickly is not – in the scheme of things – especially difficult. So, because he likes a challenge, Jonathan will be talking about his experiences in rendering the Buddhabrot using the Cell BE processor, on the Playstation3.

With pretty pictures, complex mathematics and platform-targeted program decomposition, this talk will have something for everyone, perhaps.
