I am looking at using VLSI to speed up the display of parametrically defined surfaces (B-spline defined etc). Can anyone direct me towards any work which has already been done in this area or supply me with references for algorithms for rendering these surfaces? The references that I have at present are: Lane, Carpenter, Whitted, and Blinn; Scan Line Methods for Displaying Parametrically Defined Surfaces; CACM; Vol 23, No.1 Jan 1980 Schweitzer and Cobb; Scanline Rendering of Parametric Surfaces; Computer Graphics; Vol 16, No 3 July 82. [1982 Siggraph Proceedings] I am especially interested in any more recent work that might exist. Thank you in advance Peter
