The geometric skeleton is derived from a static object using an implicit ‘directions’ method; an IK skeleton is derived from and used to manipulate the geometric skeleton. The model may be reconstructed from the modified skeleton using implicit distance and convolution methods. Introduction We examine the use of the skeleton to manipulate erstwhile static 3D models. These models may be generate...

We prove that the skeleton of a product of finitely many finite distributive lattices is isomorphic to the product of skeletons of its factors. Thus, it is possible to construct finite distributive lattices with a given directly reducible skeleton by reducing the problem to the skeleton factors. Although not all possible lattices can be obtained this way, we show that it works for the smallest ...

This report presents a survey of performance models for parallel al-gorithmic skeletons. First, higher-order functions (HOFs) are presented according to the modelled skeletons. Next, the corresponding parallel implementations (skeletons) for the HOFs are discussed with the performance models that were constructed for the skeletons.

We describe an eecient implementation of a parallel algorithmic skeleton which supports set membership classiication problems in Constructive Solid Geometry. A performance modelling methodology is developed, which realistically predicts the asymptotic performance of speciic CSG applications.
