183 Gouraud, HenriComputer display of curved surfacesThis research describes a method for producing shaped pictures of curved surfaces. It uses a small polygon approximation of the surface to solve efficiently the nidden parts detection, and then computes the shading on each polygon in such a way that visual discontinuities between adjacent polygons d...Curved surfaces; Computer display1971
184 Pascucci, ValerioComputing morse-smale complexes with accurate geometryTopological techniques have proven highly successful in analyzing and visualizing scientific data. As a result, significant efforts have been made to compute structures like the Morse-Smale complex as robustly and efficiently as possible. However, the resulting algorithms, while topologically consis...2012-01-01
185 Cohen, ElaineComputing offsets and tool paths with Voronoi diagramsIn this paper we describe the use of Voronoi diagrams to generate offsets for planar regions bounded by circular arcs and line segments, and then use the generated offsets as tool paths for NC machining. Two methods are presented, each producing a different type of offset. One of them generates the ...Voronoi diagrams1989

188 Lindstrom, Gary E.Consistency and currency in functional databasesWe consider a hybrid model of databases, in which a functional component T is defined as an extension to an imperative component B. T. is loosely coupled to B through a highly parallel function network N. which provides a simple failsafe test of whether an existing assignment of values to a given vi...Functional databases1982
189 Cohen, ElaineConstant scallop height tool path generationAn approach for the automatic generation of constant scallop height tool paths is presented.
