Tree visualization with tree-maps
Shneiderman B. ACM Transactions on Graphics (TOG) 11(1): 92-99, 1992. Type: Article
Conventional methods for representing tree structures graphically emphasize the structure of nodes and edges rather than attributes such as node size. Shneiderman presents an algorithm for visualizing graphs as space-filling diagrams, ...

Depth-order point classification techniques for CSG display algorithms
Jansen F. (ed) ACM Transactions on Graphics (TOG) 2(3): 40-70, 1983. Type: Article
Image generation by ray tracing is dominated by the cost of evaluating the intersections of rays with geometric objects. For objects and scenes modeled using constructive solid geometry, boundaries of objects are not stored explicitly,...

The contour problem for rectilinear polygons
Wood D. Information Processing Letters 19(5): 229-236, 1984. Type: Article
This paper solves the problem of computing the contour of the union of a set of rectilinear polygons (polygons whose sides are either vertical or horizontal), with the resulting contour itself being a rectilinear polygon. The algorithm...

An optimal contour algorithm for iso-oriented rectangles
Güting R. Journal of Algorithms 5(3): 303-326, 1984. Type: Article
The paper describes a time-optimum algorithm for examining the contour of the union of n iso-oriented rectangles in 2-space (iso-oriented rectangles have sides parallel to the coordinate axes). The algorithm is a development of...
