The number of pixels being processed in a raster graphics system often exceeds 1 million per frame. Replacing fractional arithmetic by integer arithmetic on rendering graphics primitives will therefore significantly improve the rendering performance. A scaling method that replaces fractional arithmetic by integer arithmetic on rendering graphics primitives is introduced. This method is applied to the filtered edge drawing and Gouraud shading. This method will also be applicable to some of other incremental algorithms for rendering graphics primitives. Because the scaling method requires only simple modifications upon the known algorithms that already have been implemented in ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), our algorithms can easily be implemented in ASIC. Our method will be useful especially for the low-price systems (e.g., home game machines, personal computers, etc.).

Although free-form surfaces can represent smooth shapes with only a few control points contrary to polygonal meshes, graphics hardware does not support surface rendering currently. Since modern programmable graphics pipeline can be used to accelerate various kinds of existing graphics algorithms, this paper presents a method that utilizes the graphics processing unit (GPU) to render blending surfaces with arbitrary topology fast. Surface parameters sampled on the control mesh and geometric data for local surfaces are sent to the graphics pipeline, and then the vertex processor evaluates the surface positions and normals with these data. This method can achieve very high performance rather than CPU-based rendering.

We present an efficient algorithm for rendering sweep surfaces using programmable graphics hardware. A sweep surface can be represented by a cross-section curve undergoing a spline motion. This representation has a simple matrix-vector multiplication structure that can easily be adapted to programmable graphics hardware. The data for the motion and cross-section curves are stored in texture memory. The vertex processor considers a pair of surface parameters as a vertex and evaluates its coordinates and normal vector with a single matrix multiplication. Using the GPU in this way is between 10 and 40 times as fast as CPU-based rendering.

As big data become more complex than ever, there has been a need for various techniques and approaches to better analyze and explore such big data. A research discipline of visual analytics has been proposed to help users' visual data analysis and decision-making. Since 2006 when the first symposium of visual analytics was held, the visual analytics research has become popular as the advanced technology in computer graphics, data mining, and human-computer interaction has been incorporated in visual analytics. In this work we introduce the visual analytics research by reviewing and surveying the papers published in IEEE VAST 2015 in terms of data and visualization techniques to help domestics researchers' understanding on visual analytics.

With the help of computer graphics technologies, the visual effects techniques using these technologies replaced most of special effects techniques which had been used for early films. For these changes, directors and visual effects creators make an effect in a scene through their mutual agreement in contemporary films. However, they undergo a lot of trial-and-error while making a visual effects scene because they cannot perfectly communicate their ideas due to the director's narrative language, and also because of the visual effect creator's language of computer graphics technology. This research suggests the design of a visual effects data retrieval system for efficient communication between directors and visual effects creators. This application provides the means to search a database analyzing visual effects scenes extracted from 14 remarkable movies in visual effect history by narrative and visual effects technique. They can search visual effects scenes using this application. also, this data can foster communication with directors and creators so they can make an efficient production pipeline.

It is the most important technological progress for the computer graphics when computer has incorporated the color system. However, color system used in computer is totally different from traditional color system like printing ink or painting color because it is exist only in the form of wavelengths of light on the computer screen. Therefore, some compatible problems are still remains with traditional design process or color matching in photography. It is important to produce precise representation and management of color in the current design system which is controlled and managed by computer to merge design process. In this study, I have discussed the merits of color, technological characteristics, designer's approach to color and traditional color system. Also I analyzed the aesthetic characteristics of computer color system which are found in computer graphics technology and compared them to traditional color system to try to find some opportunity and possibility for new method of development.

The technology and concept of multimedia expands with the rapid growth of Digital technology. Digital broadcasting has already begun and movie industry is also switching the way of visualization from analog to digital. Image compositing is the core of the computer graphics related multimedia technology. Currently, various computer graphic technologies are being developed. Nevertheless, image compositing are being done manually because of not only the expensiveness image compositing equipments, but also the lack of experts in this area. This paper present a new image compositing technique for 3-Dimensional graphics and digital sources. A 2-Dimensional subject which will be used as a background was expanded into a 3-Dimensional by using the tracking technique. Thereafter, Effective image compositing has been obtained by precisely cooperating digital source images and 3-Dimensional model using 3-Dimensional graphics editing tool.
