#define DESCRIPTION "Equalizer implements a wide range of task decomposition algorithms to parallelize the rendering of large data sets."

<p>
Applications build with Equalizer are inherently scalable, aggregating
multiple graphics cards, processors and computers to render a single or
multiple views. The application's rendering code is parallelized, in contrast
to most other solutions which distribute the OpenGL command stream produced by
a single application thread.
</p>
<p>
Equalizer provides a comprehensive set of algorithms to parallelize,
balance and optimize the rendering of demanding data sets:
