RenderSelect: a Cloud Broker Framework for Cloud Renderfarm Services
Annette J Ruby, Banu W Aisha, Chandran P Subash

TL;DR
RenderSelect is a cloud broker framework that helps animators efficiently select, rank, and monitor cloud render farm services based on multi-criteria QoS requirements using the AHP decision-making method.
Contribution
This paper introduces RenderSelect, a novel cloud broker framework that employs AHP for dynamic ranking and selection of cloud render farm services, simplifying QoS negotiations.
Findings
AHP effectively ranks cloud render farms with less time and complexity.
RenderSelect improves decision-making efficiency for animators.
Framework facilitates better QoS monitoring and negotiation.
Abstract
In the 3D studios the animation scene files undergo a process called as rendering, where the 3D wire frame models are converted into 3D photorealistic images. As the rendering process is both a computationally intensive and a time consuming task, the cloud services based rendering in cloud render farms is gaining popularity among the animators. Though cloud render farms offer many benefits, the animators hesitate to move from their traditional offline rendering to cloud services based render farms as they lack the knowledge, expertise and the time to compare the render farm service providers based on the Quality of Service (QoS) offered by them, negotiate the QoS and monitor whether the agreed upon QoS is actually offered by the renderfarm service providers. In this paper we propose a Cloud Service Broker (CSB) framework called the RenderSelect that helps in the dynamic ranking,…
