Textures and radiosity: controlling emission and reflection with texture maps
In this paper we discuss the efficient and accurate incorporation of texture maps into a hierarchical Galerkin radiosity algorithm. This extension of the standard algorithm allows...

Predicting reflectance functions from complex surfaces
We describe a physically-based Monte Carlo technique for approximating bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) for a large class of geometries by directly simulat...

Scrap more boilerplate: reflection, zips, and generalised casts
Writing boilerplate code is a royal pain. Generic programming promises to alleviate this pain by allowing the programmer to write a generic "recipe" for boilerplate code...
