Abstract
A graphics client receives a frame, the frame comprising scene model data. A server load balancing factor is set based on the scene model data. A prospective rendering factor is set based on the scene model data. The frame is partitioned into a plurality of server bands based on the server load balancing factor and the prospective rendering factor. The server bands are distributed to a plurality of compute servers. Processed server bands are received from the compute servers. A processed frame is assembled based on the received processed server bands. The processed frame is transmitted for display to a user as an image.
