- Abstract
- The combination of processing power, memory capacity, and input/output (I/O) bandwidth found in the IBM POWER Visualization System‘“ (PVS) makes it an ideal tool for high-end, digital post-production applications. This general-purpose computer can adapt to the specific tasks required during almost any phase of the post-production process, including computer graphics rendering, video editing, rotoscoping, and special effects, auto-assembly, conforming, and compression. This paper examines the post-production process itself: the steps that are taken, how data flows through it, and generally how the PVS can fit in to provide an integrated environment.
