The second part of the thesis discuss [sic] the Area Sampling Machine, a parallel architecture designed to take advantage of the characteristics of the Area Sampling Buffer. The basic processing unit of the Area Sampling Machine is a z-buffer style scan converter. By adopting a mature technology and designing a simple parallel system, it becomes possible to dramatically speedup global illumination renderers while at the same time achieving low cost."
This thesis uses the results of our study of PEX and the solutions used in the UIPEX implementation as a means of carrying out a discussion of the problems encountered in integrating PHIGS/PHIGS PLUS into the X Window System."
Abstract: "In the past few years we have seen the acceptance of standards for both two and three dimensional computer graphics. Also during this time, the workstation community has converged on a common windowing system. This paper discusses the problems encountered in implementing graphics standards such as GKS and PHIGS PLUS within the X Window System environment."
