Auftragsgegenstand, CPA-Nummer: CPV: 30211100. Bedarfsmeldung Nr. High-end graphics supercomputer. Specification for high-end graphics supercomputer. Areas of application. The specified high-end graphics supercomputer has to fulfill the requirements of realtime VR-applications in multiwall immersive projection technology systems. It has to be a single-host multiprocessor system, no cluster solution. 4 CPUs with minimum 8 MB secondary cache, 4 GB RAM, 18 GB Disc, 6 serial ports (RS-232) XIO 4-Port Fast-Ether w/6-Port Asyn. (460kbps) Serial, 1-Port Kupfer Gig. Ethernet PCI Dest. kit Europe, Smart-UPS DP 8 000VA 230V Extra Battery, 2 24" monitors, 2 keyboards, 2 mouses, switch for video channels, installation, 36 month warranty for parts. Graphic system. the video bandwidth have to be minimum 230 MHz per output. There must be the possibility to freely define video formats, including shutter-stereo format. There must be at least 2 separate video channels whose signals must be genlockable. > 13 000 000 polygon/sec, > 8 000 000 anti-aliased vector/sec. > 180 000 000 textured pixel fill. These performance figures are per graphics channel, totaling to two times the figures as above for the entire system. Required Graphics features include: multisampling full-scene antialiasing, clip mapping, texture paging, volume rendering (3D textures), 256 MB texture memory per graphics channel. The basic operation system has to be UNIX, including software libraries for flexible, performant scenegraph rendering with the possibility to access the low-level graphics API.
