Title:
Gamut mapping in Reflectance Space
Abstract:
The gamut mappings for the colours specified in reflectance coordinates are studied. This talk is about a mapping algorithm based on the fundamental component of the reflectance, and shows that this method consistently conserves colour sensation better than simple projective mappings.

                Light, the Universe and Parallel Radiosity
                                    by
                               Alex Brodsky

                                 Abstract
 Ray tracing has been  used extensively to create rather spectacular if not
realistic images.  Unfortunately ray tracing does not work well with diffuse
environments.   The  radiosity algorithm  overcomes this  limitation but  is
computationally expensive.   One approach to improving the  performance of a
radiosity algorithm is to run it in  parallel on machines like the CRAY-T3D.
Inthis talk  I will discuss the progressive  refinement radiosity algorithm
and a possible parallelization of the algorithm which I implemented while at
the Edinburgh Parallel Computer Centre.
