Parametrized polynomial spline curves are defined by an S-polygon, but locally they are Bdzier curves defined by a B-polygon. Two algorithms are given which construct one polygon from the other and vice versa. The generalization to surfaces is straightforward. This may be of some interest in CA D be

A useful and simple algorithm is presented for interactively generating B-spline interpolation curves and surfaces from B-spline approximation solutions. The difference between the data points and the B-spline approximation is used to modify the control vertices in order to generate a succession of
This paper briefly outlines the design' and application of two potential display processor components in future computeraided design systems. Most of the applications derive from the high-speed graphics facilities with automatic hidden-line" removal -however some depend on an overlap testing procedu
