Raster Display of a Rotating Object Using Parallel Processing
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1983)
Parallel processing algorithms have been developed which approach real-time in displaying raster graphics images of a single rotating three-dimensional object. The hardware required consists of a large number of individual ...
Geodesic Curves on Patched Polynomial Surfaces
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1983)
A method is described for tracing geodesic curves across patched surfaces. Two techniques are discussed for constructing the curves - an initial value problem and a boundary value problem. Arc lengths are computed, as well ...
Single User Workstations

A Method for Choosing Tickmarks on a Nonlinear Scale
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1983)
The problem of choosing tickmarks for nonlinear scales is of interest for some kindsof diagrams, e.g., nomograms and contour plots. A method for getting "nice"values at the tickmarks is discussed based on a database of ...
