Whois & Analysis for heavenbenchmark.com

A graphics processing unit (GPU) is a specialized electronic circuit initially designed to accelerate computer graphics and image processing (either on a video card or embedded on motherboards, mobile phones, personal computers, workstations, and game consoles).

After their initial design, GPUs were found to be useful for non-graphic calculations involving embarrassingly parallel problems due to their parallel structure.

Other non-graphical uses include the training of neural networks and cryptocurrency mining.

Heaven Benchmark is benchmarking software based on the UNIGINE Engine.

The benchmark was developed and published by UNIGINE Company in 2009.

The main purpose of software is performance and stability testing for GPUs.

Users can choose a workload preset, Basic or Extreme, or set the parameters by custom.

The benchmark 3D scene is a steampunk-style city on flying islands in the middle of the clouds.

The scene is GPU-intensive because of tessellation used for all the surfaces, dynamic sky with volumetric clouds and day-night cycle, real-time global illumination, and screen-space ambient occlusion.

Real-time computing (RTC) is the computer science term for hardware and software systems subject to a "real-time constraint", for example from event to system response.

Real-time programs must guarantee response within specified time constraints, often referred to as "deadlines".

A computer is a machine that can be programmed to carry out sequences of arithmetic or logical operations (computation) automatically.

Modern digital electronic computers can perform generic sets of operations known as programs.

These programs enable computers to perform a wide range of tasks.

The term computer system may refer to a nominally complete computer that includes the hardware, operating system, software, and peripheral equipment needed and used for full operation; or to a group of computers that are linked and function together, such as a computer network or computer cluster.

Rendering or image synthesis is the process of generating a photorealistic or non-photorealistic image from a 2D or 3D model by means of a computer program.

The resulting image is referred to as the render.

Multiple models can be defined in a scene file containing objects in a strictly defined language or data structure.

The scene file contains geometry, viewpoint, texture, lighting, and shading information describing the virtual scene.

The data contained in the scene file is then passed to a rendering program to be processed and output to a digital image or raster graphics image file.

The term "rendering" is analogous to the concept of an artist's impression of a scene.

The term "rendering" is also used to describe the process of calculating effects in a video editing program to produce the final video output.
