Digital Publishing - Data Handling
(Eurographics Association, 1997)SuperJournal is a research project aiming to identify what factors will make electronic journals successful and why. The project brings together some 20 society, university press and commercial publishers, who are providing ... -
Advanced Applications of Volume Visualization Methods in Medicine
(Eurographics Association, 1997)Tomographicmedical imaging techniques have become more popular in recent years. The wide availability of CT,MRI and Ultrasound inmost large hospitals results in a rapidly increasing number of examinations with these devices. ... -
Digital Publishing
(Eurographics Association, 1997)This presentation covers the general topic of ‘Digital Publishing’ in the context of - the German MEDOC Project and - the German Strategic Digital Library Initiative V3D2 and, more specifically, - in the context of organizing ... -
Building Telepresence Systems: TranslatingScience Fiction into Reality
(Eurographics Association, 1997)- -
C 2 Gregory patch
(Eurographics Association, 1991)G² continuity of free-form surfaces is sometimes very important in engineering applications. The conditions for G2 continuity between two Bezier patches has been studied and methods developed to ensure such continuity. ... -
Solid-Interpolating Deformations: Construction and animation of PIPs
(Eurographics Association, 1991)Computer programs that simulate the deformations of geometric shapes have played a key role in the increasing popularity of software tools for artistic animation. Previously published techniques for specifying and animating ... -
Variable-Radius Blending by Using Gregory Patches in Geo- metric Modeling
(Eurographics Association, 1991)Blending surfaces, which connect two curved surfaces smoothly, often appear in geometric modeling. Many of the blending surfaces are variable-radius blends. Variableradius blending surfaces are very important in the design ... -
A Testbed for Image Synthesis
(Eurographics Association, 1991)Image Synthesis research combines new ideas with existing techniques. A collection of software modules that provide such techniques is extremely useful for simplifying the development process. We describe the design and ... -
Time Complexity of Monte Carlo Radiosity
(Eurographics Association, 1991)The time complexity of Monte Carlo radiosity is discussed, and a proof is given that the expected number of rays required to produce a satisfactory radiosity solution for N zones is O(N). A satisfactory solution is defined ... -
Computational Physics : A Modeler - Simulator for animated physical Objects
(Eurographics Association, 1991)Physical modeling for animation is now firmly established. The present aim is to design and build a structured and well-defined tool rather than merely specific algorithms to simulate physical knowledge. We will first ... -
Fast Rendering of General Ellipses
(Eurographics Association, 1991)Even though GKS did not include circles and, in a more general form, ellipses and elliptical arcs in the list of elementary graphics primitives, CGM settled this omission with its standardization in 1987. According to CGM ... -
Tessellation of Curved Surfaces under Highly Varying Transformations
(Eurographics Association, 1991)We pursue the problem of step size determination for tessellating arbitrary degree polynomial and rational Bezier patches, under highly varying modeling and viewing transformations, to within post-viewing size and/or ... -
Timewarps: A Temporal Reparameterization Paradigm for Parametric Animation
(Eurographics Association, 1991)The ability to reparameterize the temporal axis in an animated sequence is a powerful and underexplored tool. Timewarps are described as extensions to previous work and the advantages of this tool are outlined. Timewarps ... -
Constructive Page Description Opening Up the Prepress World
(Eurographics Association, 1991)Constructive Page Description (CPD) is an overall approach allowing different kinds of data to be exchanged between a variety of systems and manipulated in arbitrary system environments. Fully changeable pages, which keep ... -
Interrogation of Offsets of Polynomial Surface Patches
(Eurographics Association, 1991)This paper presents an algorithm for computing the intersection of the offset (or parallel) surface of a polynomial surface patch ( rogenitor) of arbitrary degree, with a straight line. The rogenitor patch is expressed in ... -
Animation of Landscapes Using Satellite Imagery
(Eurographics Association, 1991)The paper presents methods to animate synthetic landscapes. The modeling of the landscape, the interactive specification of the flight path and the simulation of an explosion are described. The landscape is visualized by ... -
Radiosity for Furry Surfaces
(Eurographics Association, 1991)Though radiosity method is an advanced rendering technique of global illumination, it is still not sufficiently to cope with many natural phenonmena such as furry surfaces. The rendering of furry surfaces has been a long ... -
Interactive Conformance Testing for PHIGS
(Eurographics Association, 1991)Conformance testing for the Programmer’s Hierarchical Interactive Graphics System (PHIGS) standard presents certain novel difficulties, especially the indirect effect of many functions, and the inaccessibility to the program ...
