Face Cluster Radiosity
Abstract. An algorithm for simulating diffuse interreflection in complex three dimensional scenes is described. It combines techniques from hierarchical radiosity and multiresolut...

COMPaS: A Pentium Pro PC-based SMP Cluster and Its Experience
We have built an eight node SMP cluster called COMPaS (Cluster Of Multi-Processor Systems), each node of which is a quadprocessor Pentium Pro PC. We have designed and implemented a...

A clustering algorithm for radiosity in complex environments
We present an approach for accelerating hierarchical radiosity by clustering objects. Previous approaches constructed effective hierarchies by subdividing surfaces, but could not ...

Feature-based control of visibility error: a multi-resolution clustering algorithm for global illumination
In this paper we introduce a new approach to controlling error in hierarchical clustering algorithms for radiosity. The new method ensures that just enough work is done to meet th...
