Algorithms for Parallel Polygon Rendering

Algorithms for Parallel Polygon Rendering by Theoharis Theoharis.

This book is the result of the research in the implementation of polygon-based graphics operations on certain general purpose parallel processors; the aim is to provide a speed-up over sequential implementations of the graphics operations concerned, and the resulting software can be viewed as a subs...
