Abstract:
|
This paper presents a method of producing shaded images of terrain at an extremely fast rate by exploiting parallelism. The architecture of the Data Flow Computer is explained along with an appropriate "program" to compute the images. It is shown how shaded images of terrain can be computed in less than one-tenth of a second using a moderate-sized Data Flow Computer. |
