Adding 3D Graphics Support to PLX
نویسنده
چکیده
PLX is a compact, fully subword-parallel instruction set architecture (ISA) for very fast multimedia processing. This paper adds floating-point instructions to PLX for 3D graphics processing, which is essential for applications such as games and digital content creation. Based on an analysis of the 3D graphics pipeline from an ISA point of view, we show the operations and data types needed. We present the FP ISA and demonstrate its use and performance with code examples from the 3D graphics pipeline. Keywordsprocessor architecture, instruction-set architecture (ISA), floating-point, multimedia, 3D graphics

Game-enabling the 3D-Mandelbulb Fractal by adding Velocity-induced Support Vectors
Fractals provide an innovative method for generating 3D images of real-world objects by using computational modelling algorithms based on the imperatives of selfsimilarity, scale invariance, and dimensionality. Of the many different types of fractals that have come into limelight since their origin, the family of Mandelbrot Set fractals has eluded both mathematicians and computer scientists ali...
متن کاملPLX: An Instruction Set Architecture and Testbed for Multimedia Information Processing
PLX is a concise instruction set architecture (ISA) that combines the most useful features from previous generations of multimedia instruction sets with newer ISA features for high-performance, low-cost multimedia information processing. Unlike previous multimedia instruction sets, PLX is not added onto a base processor ISA, but designed from the beginning as a standalone processor architecture...
متن کاملUltra-Fast Image Reconstruction of Tomosynthesis Mammography Using GPU
Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) is a technology that creates three dimensional (3D) images of breast tissue. Tomosynthesis mammography detects lesions that are not detectable with other imaging systems. If image reconstruction time is in the order of seconds, we can use Tomosynthesis systems to perform Tomosynthesis-guided Interventional procedures. This research has been designed to study u...
متن کاملComputer vision framework for adding CG Simulations
Rendering synthetic simulations into real world scenes is an important application of both Computer Graphics (CG) and Computer Vision (CV). CV techniques have been used to reconstruct the 3D models of the real world scenes. As part of my course project, I’ve implemented computer vision modules for calibrating camera, computing stereo, computing depth-maps, computing 3D models and a graphics int...
متن کاملDeclarative (X)3D in HTML5
In this demo description we present X3DOM, which is an open source framework and runtime system to support the ongoing discussion in the Web3D and W3C communities how an integration of HTML5 and declarative 3D graphics can look like by including X3D elements as part of the HTML5 DOM tree. The goal here is to have a live X3D scene-graph integrated into the HTML DOM, which allows manipulating the...
