The 19th issue of the Transactions on Computational Science journal, edited by Anton Konushin, is devoted to the topic of computer graphics. The 12 papers in th

Photon mapping, an extension of ray tracing, makes it possible to efficiently simulate global illumination in complex scenes. Photon mapping can simulate causti

This updated edition describes both the mathematical theory behind a modern photorealistic rendering system as well as its practical implementation. Through the
