Complex systems often exhibit multiple levels of organization covering a wide range of physical scales, so the study of the hierarchical decomposition of their structure and function is frequently convenient. To better ...

Ray tracing is an important technique for obtaining photo-realistic images. The basic algorithm is well known and consists of tracing rays from a synthetic camera position by calculating the color of objects colliding ...
