Balanced Sampling and Compression for Remote Visualization

In Proceedings of SIGGRAPH Asia Symposium on Visualization in High Performance Computing, pp. 1:1–1:4, 2015.

Abstract

We present a novel approach for handling sampling and compression in remote visualization in an integrative fashion. As adaptive sampling and compression share the same underlying concepts and criteria, the times spent for visualization and transfer can be balanced dire... [More ...]
