Analysis of Cache Behavior and Performance of Different BVH Memory Layouts for Tracing Incoherent Rays
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)
With CPUs moving towards many-core architectures and GPUs becoming more general purpose architectures, path tracing can now be well parallelized on commodity hardware. While parallelization is trivial in theory, properties ...
On Quality Metrics of Bounding Volume Hierarchies
(ACM, 2013)
The surface area heuristic (SAH) is widely used as a predictor for ray tracing performance, and as a heuristic to guide the construction of spatial acceleration structures. We investigate how well SAH actually predicts ray ...
