The goal of this project is to explore the idea of point-based
radiosity, which is a shooting radiosity technique suggested by Mark
Harris at UNC. The primary idea is that features available in
graphics hardware can be utilized to perform radiosity calculations.
Facilities such as flat shading, diffuse lighting, projective
textures, and mipmapping can be used to replace traditional numerical
solutions for radiosity.
KPhoneIM is a simple point to point instant messaging application. You may chat with (exactly) one partner directly. The tool needs no server. It may be called from KPhoneSI as external session. Indeed, I develloped the tool mainly to demonstrate KPhoneSI s concept of external sessions!
Bing is a point-to-point bandwidth measurement tool (hence the b ), based on ping. Bing determines the real (raw, as opposed to available or average) throughput on a link by measuring ICMP echo requests roundtrip times for different packet sizes for each end of the link
