dc.description.abstract	When graphics objects (also called segments) are used on raster display hardware, problems arise because of the mismatch between the high level requirements of object manipulation, and the low level representation from which the image is refreshed. This paper describes a tiling algorithm which provides a solution to the problems of damage repair and hit detection. In particular methods for handling object priority are discussed and experimental results showing the performance of the algorithm for a number of cases are presented.	en_US
