View-dependentsimplification has emerged as a powerful tool for graphics acceleration in visualization of complex environments. However, view-dependent simplification techniques h...
This paper proposes a massively parallel hardware architecture for efficient tracing of incoherent rays, e.g. for global illumination. The general approach is centered around hier...
We present a new conservative image-based occlusion culling method to increase the speed of hardware accelerated rendering of very complex general scenes which may consist of mill...

Subword parallelism has succeeded in accelerating many multimedia applications. Subword permutation instructions have been proposed to efficiently rearrange subwords in or among r...
Continuing improvements in CPU and GPU performances as well as increasing multi-core processor and cluster-based parallelism demand for flexible and scalable parallel rendering sol...
