Hierarchical Radiosity The concept of hierarchical radiosity is key to the efficient display of diffuse illumination in a 3D virtual environment. Using the hierarchical radiosity algorithm, the level of detail in radiosity ? how much care and accuracy is to be taken ? is determined in the hierarchy by distance from and importance to the viewpoint.

Results by page [1] ![]() Rendering of lighting in outdoor scenes is a paramount concern. To truly be realistic, the light levels constantly vary, and the sun (or suns) are not usually even the primary lightsource! All that adds up to is a computational disaster, unless some way is found to render lightsoure data quickly, and easilly.... ![]() ![]() At the time of publication, it was the best book on the subject of networking real-time, multiple user, persistent environments. Although it is still on the market today, the problem is, it is almost hopelessly dated, still insisting on a hierarchical architecture, which was perfect at the time, but just cannot cope with large worlds today. ![]() ![]() ![]() The virtual worlds of today are essentially hierarchical systems. A small number of servers which hold the data for the worlds, and an innumerable number of client connections, largely untrusted. This resource, half article/half rant, looks at the virtual worlds of tomorrow; at distributed systems, and world browsers.
