The advent of GPU ray tracers

Kroeze, J C W; Jordaan, D B; Pretorius, P (IBIMA, 2010)

Ever since it's introduction in 1980 the ray tracing algorithm has been a tricky puzzle. On the one hand it offers photo-realistic rendering superior to the more common rasterization algorithm, but on the other it's much ...
Benchmarking for ray tracing performance measurement

Kroeze, J C W; Jordaan, D B; Pretorius, P (IBIMA, 2010)

During the past thirty years, researchers have greatly sped up the naïve ray tracing algorithm. However, the methods used to measure and compare their diverse algorithms have remained ad-hoc. This makes it difficult to ...
