In traditional distributed simulation schemes, entire simulation needs to be restarted if any of the participating LP crashes. This is highly undesirable for long running simulati...
The multipass-rendering method integrating radiosity with ray-tracing gives one of the best solutions for synthesizing photo-realistic images. However, the method is also computat...
The World-Wide Web has achieved global connectivity stimulating the transition of computers from knowledge processors to knowledge sources. But the Web and its client software are...
We present an approach for accelerating hierarchical radiosity by clustering objects. Previous approaches constructed effective hierarchies by subdividing surfaces, but could not ...
We describe a physically-based Monte Carlo technique for approximating bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) for a large class of geometries by directly simulat...
