We describe a technique for achieving fast volume ray casting on parallel machines, using a load balancing scheme and an e cient pipelined approach to compositing. We propose a ne...
Molecular geometric properties, such as volume, exposed surface area, and occurrence of internal cavities, are important inputs to many applications in molecular modeling. In this ...
