چکیده

Recent advances in graphics hardware provide new possibilities to successfully integrate and improve multiresolution models. In this paper, we present a new continuous multiresolution model that maintains its geometry, based on triangle strips, in high-performance memory in the GPU. This model manages the level of detail by performing fast strip updating operations. We show how this approach takes advantage of the new capabilities of GPUs in an efficient manner.

Creation and Control of Real-time Continuous Level of Detail on Programmable

Continuity in level of detail sequences is essential in hiding visual artefacts that occur when switching between discrete levels of detail. However, construction and implementation of these sequences is prohibitively complex. We present a new structure, the g-mesh, which greatly simplifies the implementation of continuous level of detail in large scenes. We also introduce a novel greedy predic...

Investigating the Effects of Hardware Parameters on Power Consumptions in SPMV Algorithms on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs)

Although Sparse matrix-vector multiplication (SPMVs) algorithms are simple, they include important parts of Linear Algebra algorithms in Mathematics and Physics areas. As these algorithms can be run in parallel, Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) has been considered as one of the best candidates to run these algorithms. In the recent years, power consumption has been considered as one of the metr...

Level-of-Detail Shaders

Current graphics hardware can render objects using simple procedural shaders in real-time. However, detailed, highquality shaders will continue to stress the resources of hardware for some time to come. Shaders written for film production and software renderers may stretch to thousands of lines. The difficulty of rendering efficiently is compounded when there is not just one, but a scene full o...

Real - Time Continuous Level - of - Detail Terrain Rendering With Nested Splitting Space

Real-time visualization of large-scale terrain models requires complex continuous level-of-detail (LOD) schemes to reduce the prohibitively large geometry complexity of natural terrain to an acceptable level while maintaining high image quality. This paper presents new algorithms and data structures to solve this problem. Our solution centers on computing independent per-vertex error bounds, wh...

Hardware-Oriented Visualisation of Trees

Real-time rendering of vegetation is currently a problem in need of a solution. The large number of polygons that form this kind of objects means that current hardware cannot achieve interactive rendering of outdoor scenes. This paper deals with the problem and it presents a multiresolution scheme that allows us to represent the whole geometry of the trees using both uniform and variable levels...
