Surface Models of Tube Trees
This paper describes a new method for generating surfaces of branching tubular structures with given centerlines and radii. As the centerlines are not straight lines, the cross-se...

Scene Management Models and Overlap Tests for Tile-Based Rendering
Tile-based rendering (also called chunk rendering or bucket rendering) is a promising technique for low-power, 3D graphics platforms. This technique decomposes a scene into smalle...
