Sinopsis

This book is a collection of several tutorials from the EUROGRAPHICS ’90 conference in Montreux. The conference was held under the motto "IMAGES: Synthesis, Analysis and Interaction", and the tutorials, partly presented in this volume, reflect the conference theme. As such, this volume provides a unique collection of advanced texts on ’traditional’ com­ puter graphics as well as of tutorials on image processing and image reconstruction. As with all the volumes of the series "Advances in Computer Graphics", the contributors are leading experts in their respective fields. The chapter Design and Display of Solid Models provides an extended introduction to interactive graphics techniques for design, fast display, and high-quality rendering of solid models. The text focuses on techniques for Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG). The follow­ ing topics are treated in depth: interactive design techniques (specification of curves, surfaces and solids; graphical user interfaces; procedural languages and direct manipulation) and display techniques (depth-buffer, scan-line and ray-tracing techniques; CSG classification techniques; efficiency-improving methods; software and hardware implementations).

Reseña del editor

This volume is a collection of the Eurographics Tutorials presented at the Eurographics '90 conference in Switzerland. Image synthesis is a traditional topic of Eurographics. But it has become clear in recent years that there is an unnaturally large distance between the two large fields of image synthesis and image analysis - the latter includes such areas as image processing, computer vision, image coding techniques, and 3D reconstruction. There is now a whole range of theoretical problems where the mixture of these two approaches is not only fruitful but also necessary. The spectacular advances in recent years in medical imaging and its applications, in scientific visualization, and in the need for sophisticated input and interaction techniques have all contributed to this development. The tutorial programme of Eurographics '90 was strongly influenced by this development and gives a unique combined perspective on the fields in one volume. The contributors are well known international experts from Europe, Japan and the USA.
