- Triangle Order Optimization for Graphics Hardware Computation Culling
- This paper describes an automatic preprocessing algorithm that re-orders triangles in a mesh so as to enable the graphics hard-ware to efficiently cull vertex and pixel processing at rendering time. The method starts by dividing the mesh into planar clusters which are subsequently sorted into a view-independent order which greatly...

- On Improving the Throughput of Media Delivery Applications in Heterogeneous Overlay Network
- Overlay multicast is becoming increasingly popular for multimedia delivery over Internet. The available bandwidths between sender and different receivers are generally heterogeneous. This paper proposes a scheme to improve the throughput of a media delivery session with heterogeneous receivers by organizing the receivers into layered data distribution meshes and sending...

- DisplacementMapping10 Sample
- This sample implements displacement mapping by ray tracing through geometry extruded from a base mesh. The sample uses Direct3D 10 and the geometry shader to extrude prisms which are then decomposed into three tetrahedra for each triangle in the mesh. The pixel shader ray traces through the tetrahedra to intersect...

- Draw Predicated Sample
- This sample uses the occlusion predicate query to avoid drawing unnecessary geometry. The scene contains four meshes, the center columne mesh, the microscope mesh, the city mesh, and the microscope occlusion mesh. The microscope mesh is a high resolution mesh that comprises the focus of the scene. Because of the...
