BoXeR is an integrated design environment for CFD. It includes all elements of the design process from CAD solid import via tessellated surfaces to solid model export via STL/VRML.
 |
Client: The ‘thin’ client can be a user’s workstation, laptop, VR booth or VR projection system.
Cluster: The cluster acts as server for all BoXeR tasks, it requires no master node, and all tasks run in parallel. The only information it needs to return to the client are the triangles for display rendering which can be automatically decimated on-the-fly to keep below the client network connectivity bandwidth, thereby eliminating the serial bottleneck.
Disc: This represents the import and export options which could be reading or writing from the client, the cluster (including parallel archives) or a network storage facility.
