Craig Kaplan	Title : Semiregular Patterns on Surfaces Abstract: A popular topic in computer graphics research is the synthesis of irregular textures on surfaces. However, very little work has considered how to decorate surfaces with _ordered_ patterns. In this work, I show how patterns belonging to certain planar symmetry groups may be transferred to the domains of suitably parameterized meshes. The method requires nothing more than texture mapping once the meshes are parameterized, and greatly simplifies previous attempts to place patterns on surfaces.
