What is Jfract



All your integration to jfract are managed with an xml file descriptor named jfract.xml.

All your fractals can be serialized on the disk and you can reload its as you want. All pics can be generated on the disk with several formats.

Jfract use JAI and JMF as embedded apis for movies and pictures management.

Distributed network computing is possible. You can generate pics and movie by using 1000 computers.

Jfract has been tested on windows XP, and Nt. It should work under linux with appropriate librairies of JAI an JMF.

Jakarta ant is used to manage the project.
