"A Survey on Ubiquitous Graphics"

Miss Hong Zhou


Abstract:

Ubiquitous graphics allows people to run 3D graphics applications
anywhere, anytime, and on various devices. With the advent of high
bandwidth wireless networks and cheap but powerful graphics hardware,
ubiquitous graphics will find many important applications and have huge
impacts on our daily life.

In this survey, we will review some important techniques for ubiquitous
graphics. Specifically, we will focus on four key components of
ubiquitous graphics: task distribution, data layout, data compression,
and data transmission. These four components are very important for our
target applications such as pervasive medical visualization system,
remote diagnosis, navigation of virtual building, and collaborative
learning. At the end of this survey, we will point out some future
research directions.
