A comparison study on open source platform in virtual architectural walkthrough application: Linux and Windows

Both platforms are then compared in order to measure and evaluate the performance of each platform used to build the virtual architectural walkthrough. Therefore, this research is an attempt to quantify the relative merits of the Windows and Linux operating systems as an underlying platform for a virtual architectural walkthrough and to experimentally determine, which either of the two demonstrates superiority for this task. This is to make sure that the base in which the particular application is run at has sufficient help at its maximum performance. This research is also important to show which operating system has better capabilities, speed and ample of memory to sustain a virtual reality application. In pursuit of this goal, several experiments are detailed and recorded, in which key criteria are compared between the two operating systems. The performance of each platform is measured based on four main key criteria's which is frame rate, image quality, CPU usage and memory usage.
