  • Visual Supercomputing: Technologies, Applications and Challenges 

    Brodlie, Ken; Brooke, John; Chen, Min; Chisnall, David; Fewings, Ade; Hughes, Chris; John, Nigel W.; Jones, Mark W.; Riding, Mark; Roard, Nicolas (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2005)
    If we were to have a Grid infrastructure for visualization, what technologies would be needed to build such an infrastructure, what kind of applications would benefit from it, and what challenges are we facing in order to ...

  • Survey of Real-Time Rendering Techniques for Crowds 

    Ryder, G.; Day, A. M. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2005)
    Real-time rendering of photo-realistic humans is considerably outside the scope of current consumer-level computer hardware. There are many techniques, which attempt to bridge the gap between what is desired and what is ...

  • Dual Marching Cubes: Primal Contouring of Dual Grids 

    Schaefer, Scott; Warren, Joe (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2005)
    We present a method for contouring an implicit function using a grid topologically dual to structured grids such as octrees. By aligning the vertices of the dual grid with the features of the implicit function, we are able ...

  • A Data-Driven Approach for Real-Time Clothes Simulation 

    Cordier, Frederic; Magnenat-Thalmann, Nadia (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2005)
    A data-driven approach for the real-time processing of clothes, particularly suitable for simulating dresses worn by virtual characters, is proposed. It starts, prior to real-time simulation, by analyzing cloth behavior ...

  • Glare Generation Based on Wave Optics 

    Kakimoto, Masanori; Matsuoka, Kaoru; Nishita, Tomoyuki; Naemura, Takeshi; Harashima, Hiroshi (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2005)
    This paper proposes a novel and general method of glare generation based on wave optics. A glare image is regarded as a result of Fraunhofer diffraction, which is equivalent to a 2D Fourier transform of the image of given ...

  • Anti-Aliased Lines Using Run-Masks 

    Diakopoulos, Nicholas A.; Stephenson, Peter D. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2005)
    In recent work, a set of line digitization algorithms based on the hierarchy of runs in the digital line has unified and generalized the iterative line-drawing algorithms used in computer graphics. In this paper, the ...

  • Modeling Color Properties of Tiled Displays 

    Majumder, Aditi; Gopi, M. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2005)
    The concept of tiled displays can be successful only if such displays are made to look like a single display perceptually. The two issues that need to be solved to achieve this goal are geometric correction and color ...

  • RenderBots-Multi-Agent Systems for Direct Image Generation 

    Schlechtweg, Stefan; Germer, Tobias; Strothotte, Thomas (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2005)
    The term stroke-based rendering collectively describes techniques where images are generated from elements that are usually larger than a pixel. These techniques lend themselves well for rendering artistic styles such as ...
