  1. 1. Real-Time GPU Algorithms: Parallel Primitives and Rendering of Participating Media

    Author : Markus Billeter; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; grids; indirect illumination; shafts of light; multiple scattering; stream compaction; single scattering; parallel primitives; GPGPU;

    Abstract : Modern graphics processing units, GPUs, present an immense resource of computational power, that however remains challenging to fully harness. This thesis explores four algorithms and methods that attempt to take full advantage of the resources provided by a GPU. READ MORE

  2. 2. Real-time Shading and Shadows using GPGPU Techniques

    Author : Ola Olsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; real-time; graphics; rendering; GPGPU; GPU-algorithms; deferred shading; ray tracing; shadows;

    Abstract : Modern GPUs have evolved to the point where they now offer a generality of programming that rivals CPUs, while at the same time sustaining much greater raw performance. In combination with a continued rapid increase in power, this generality has turned the GPU into an important platform for general purpose high performance computing algorithms. READ MORE

  3. 3. Real-Time GPU Techniques for Advanced Lighting Phenomena

    Author : Markus Billeter; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Shading; Rendering; Participating Media; Volumetric Shadows; Mobile Graphics; Scattering; Computer Graphics; GPGPU; Many-Light;

    Abstract : In the real world, the visual perception of an object is completely determined by the object's interactions with light. One large application of computer graphics is to visualize virtual objects and worlds in a fashion that is familiar to humans. Successfully emulating light and its effects on virtual objects therefore plays a central role. READ MORE
