A Laboratory for Computer Graphics and Parallel Computing

这个项目为学生提供了实施视觉逼真、交互的图形项目和/或试验并行计算概念的机会。建立了一个实验室，使学生能够获得现代计算机图形应用程序的经验，这些应用程序允许实施两种类型的项目：(1)通过光线跟踪实现高级渲染和(2)使用SunPHIGS的分层图形应用程序，并允许学生通过实现他们自己的并行版本的串行算法来学习并行计算。该实验室由四个SUN工作站和支持软件组成的网络组成。

This project provides opportunities for students to implement visually realistic, interactive, graphics projects and/or to experiment with parallel computing concepts. A laboratory is established that enables students to gain experience with modern computer graphics applications that allow two types of projects to be implemented: (1) advanced rendering via ray- tracing and (2) hierarchical graphics applications using SunPHIGS, and allows students to study parallel computing by implementing their own parallel versions of serial algorithms. The laboratory consists of a network of four SUN Workstations with supporting software.
