      Mao, Qijing (Eurographics Association, 1989)
      A user interlace development tool called Micro-UIDT is described. Micro-UIDT provides an interactive design environment fur the user interface designers. The designing language for defining user interfaces are visual and ...

    • Pixel Selected Ray Tracing 

      Akimoto, Taka-aki; Mase, Kenji; Hashimoto, Akihiko; Suenaga, Yasuhito (Eurographics Association, 1989)
      This paper presents a new ray-tracing acceleration technique called Pixel Selected Ray-Tracing (PSRT). PSRT uses undersampling based on Iterative Central Point Selection(ICPS) along with checking for similarities among ...

    • 2-D Macroscopic Texture Synthesis 

      Bennis, Chakib; Gagalowicz, Andre (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1989)
      We present a new macroscopic texture synthesis method based upon a hierarchical macroscopic texture model. Our model allows the composition of various patterns which can be themselves distorted spatially. Such a method is ...

    • A Method for the Representation, Evaluation and Display of CSG Models in PHIGS and PHIGS+ 

      Patel, Manjula (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1989)
      The Programmer s Hierarchical Interactive Graphics System (PHIGS) is about to become a standard graphics system? which caters for the definition, display and modification of two and three-dimensional graphical data.PHIGS, ...

    • Anti-aliased Ray Tracing with Covers 

      Thomas, D.; Netravali, Arun N.; Fox, D.S. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1989)
      A fast and effective object space method for antialiasing ray-traced pictures is introduced. Traditionally, anti-aliasing has been done using super-sampling. However, this is costly since it requires casting large numbers ...

    • Faster Phong Shading via Angular Interpolation 

      Kuijk, AAM.; Blake, E.H. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1989)
      One of the most successful algorithms that brought realism to the world of 3D image generation is Phong shading. It is an algorithm for smooth shading meshes of planar polygons used to represent curved surfaces. The level ...

    • Motion Control in Animation, Simulation and Visualization* 

      Hegror, Gerard; Palamidese, Patrizia; Thalmann, Daniel (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1989)
      This paper discusses the role and the evolution of animation, simulation and scientific visualization and their relationships. Two trends are described: (1) the physical laws are well-known and their use improves the ...

    • On The Projective Invariant Representation of Conies in Computer Graphics 

      Herman, Ivan (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1989)
      A general formulation for conies and conic arcs for the purpose of computer graphics is given, based on principles and theorems of projective geometry. This approach allows the approximation of these curves by line segments ...
