Abstract

This report proposes a new approach to address the problems that are likely to arise from an increase in the complexity of databases for computer graphics. The first section provides a summary of the problems with existing systems, then the structural requirements for a solution are outlined in Section 2 and Section 3 gives a description of the functionality of the major components. Finally, likely developments in model descriptions are anticipated and their consequences discussed. 1 Introduction 1.1 The Entire Database Traditionally, a computer graphics application that renders images from a three dimensional scene description, considers the entire object database, which is often loaded and compiled from a textual representation at invocation time. As the size of such databases increases with the desire to model more complex scenes, an ever increasing cost is incurred. The I/O bandwidth required places limits on the processing speed and puts unnecessary load on the memory system. Ap...
