No, this isn’t about some hot new way of using Voronoi diagrams to google myself; I’ll leave that challenge to Mario.
I was looking over the search terms that had led people to my blog today, and decided to click on “Alan Shaw” Voronoi. Among all the recent stuff, I came across some papers and articles from my pre-Flash (and pre-C++) days:
Automatic construction of polyhedral surfaces from voxel representations (1988)
Generalized map makers problem: optimal flattening of polyhedral surfaces
Applications of Computer Graphics and Image Processing to 2D and 3D Modeling of the Functional Architecture of Visual Cortex
A Numerical Solution to the Generalized Mapmaker’s Problem: Flattening Nonconvex Polyhedral Surfaces
Now to reread them after twenty years and see if they were all bullshit.
We achieved reasonable performance on a Sun-2 microprocessor system (which is roughly comparable to a VAX-750).
Uh huh.
