....OpenRT operates on a very low level that allows it to be used from almost any application or scene graph library. For this paper we concentrate on only a small aspect of OpenRT relevant for dynamic scenes. 4. 1 OpenRT API Our method is similar to the way optimized application make use of OpenGL [15, 2]. Primitives are grouped into display lists depending on their (dynamic update) properties. All triangles inside display lists can then be transformed efficiently adjusting the current transformation calling the display list. Triangles with unstructured motion would simply be rendered in immediate ....

....expensive. Due to the relatively recent appearance of networks with a gigabit or more of bandwidth, most previous attempts at rendering over a network have not been focused on high performance rendering. In fact, remote rendering has historically been an antonym of fast rendering. GLX [13] and XWindows [11] both provide remote rendering capabilities, but neither was designed to operate efficiently over very high speed networks. WireGL introduces new techniques for data management and distribution to make effective use of today s high speed networks. Much research has been done on ....

....research in this area in that it presents a sort first algorithm which works with immediate mode rendering; It is designed to work with an arbitrary stream of graphics commands and no prior knowledge of the scene to be rendered. 3 System Architecture WireGL provides the familiar OpenGL API [13] to users of our tiled graphics system. OpenGL is a graphics API for specifying polygonal scenes and imagery to be rendered on a display. WireGL is implemented as a driver that stands in for the system s OpenGL driver so applications can render to a tiled display without modification. The WireGL ....

....register file instead of in the memory system, a merge sort can be efficiently implemented on a stream processor with a straightforward kernel. Without this ability, either a full sort or an algorithm with multiple passes is required. 6.3. Polygon Rendering A typical polygon rendering pipeline [6] was implemented on the TRADITIONAL and HARDWARE configurations. The pipeline has three stages: geometry, rasterization, and composition. The application is stripmined such that batches of triangles are loaded into the SRF and carried through the whole pipeline together. The batch size was chosen ....

....of camera animations through planned tunnels. TunVis was implemented under Windows95 on a 133MHz Pentium PC, using Microsoft Visual C and its MFC [Chri92] for the Windows specific programming. The graphical programming was done with the MS Windows implementation of the OpenGL language [DaWN93] [Open92]. In TunVis a tunnel is created by entering geologic data into a table. The wire frame model of the tunnel pieces can then be interactively edited by selecting certain pieces and assigning textures to them. The texture images are taken from a database of geologic images, which has been designed ....

....supports multi processing; unlike multi threading, multi rendering requires minimal locking overhead. Introduction The current version 1 of the Silicon Graphics, Inc. SGI) X server [11] supports both standards for 3D graphics for the X Window System: the OpenGL TM graphics system [16, 15, 14] and PEX 5.1 [20] OpenGL is an Application Programming Interface (API) for 3D interactive graphics developed by SGI and now administered by the OpenGL Architecture Review Board. OpenGL is the successor to the proprietary IRIS GL graphics interface (the GL stands for graphics library) OpenGL ....

....and depth cueing as described above. Then the accumulation buffers are used to add the images together. 3 Implementation A volume visualization program for regularly gridded data has been implemented using the methods described in this paper. The program uses the 3D graphics library OpenGL [2] to exploit the graphics hardware of different platforms in a portable way. It has been tested on workstations from Silicon Graphics (SGI) and Digital Equipment (DEC) OpenGL supports both z buffers and accumulation buffers, and the linear depth cue described in Section 2.2 can be implemented ....

....Appendix A enumerates and annotates the logical programmer visible state maintained by GLUT. Appendix B presents the ANSI CGLUT API via its header file. Appendix C presents the FORTRAN GLUT API via its header file. 1. 1 Background One of the major accomplishments in the specification of OpenGL [14, 10] was the isolation of window system dependencies from OpenGL s rendering model. The result is that OpenGL is window system independent. Window system operations such as the creation of a rendering window and the handling of window system events are left to the native window system to define. ....

....rendering for OpenGL. Some of the issues are specific to OpenGL, but most of the techniques described are appropriate for the implementation of any high performance direct rendering graphics interface. Keywords: OpenGL, Virtual Graphics,Direct Rendering. 1 Introduction The OpenGL graphics system [14, 11] is a window system independent software interface to graphics hardware for 3D rendering. GLX [8] is the OpenGL extension to the X Window System that specifies how OpenGL integrates with X. The GLX specification explicitly allows (but does not require) implementations to support direct rendering ....
