    Notes: Abstract A new algorithm for space tracing with CSG modelled scenes is presented. Space is divided in an irregular fashion to fit the objects as closely as possible. For this reason, primitive minimal bounding boxes are computed. Space subdivision is achieved in two steps: partitioning in projection plane and depth partitioning. A set of 3D regions named cells are then created. A Boolean CSG tree is distributed into the cell structure to form in each cell the minimal boolean CSG tree using the relevant primitives. The searching process for the “next cell” along the ray path is performed by using a local data structure associated with each cell. The goal of this structure is to link the cells together. An improvement, named “mailbox”, for all space tracing algorithms is detailed. Results are presented for two scenes to compare this new algorithm with Roth's algorithm.

    Notes: Abstract This paper shows how spatial coherence can be exploited to accelerate form-factor calculation for the radiosity method. A certain number of form factors are calculated by a new technique combining hemisphere and ray tracing, while the other form factors are estimated. This estimation method has reduced form-factor calculation by a factor greate than three, for some test scenes.

    Notes: Abstract A parallel ray tracing algorithm is presented. It subdivides the seene into 3D regions, the adjacency of which is modelled by a connectivity graph of regions. Since with each region is associated a ray tracing process, this graph becomes a graph of processes, the edges of which represent the communications between processes. This graph of processes is suitably mapped onto a hypercube topology so as to minimize the communication cost. Static load balancing is performed and solutions are brought to the problems of network congestion and termination.
