The way CAVElib works is to run an instance of the program on all the cluster nodes, and synchronize the frame rate. This could easily be done for a Java3D app too. The tricky part is if you have some true randomization in the process, in which case you'll have to create a shared memory space bet

Don't know about the Java3D part but as for alternative solutions have you had a look at paraview, the VTK based parallel visualization app?
