Exploratory Programming of Distributed 3D Graphics Applications
Abstract
Repo-3D is a general-purpose, object-oriented library for developing distributed, interactive 3D
graphics applications across a range of heterogeneous workstations. In this paper we discuss how Repo-3D simplifies
exploratory programming of distributed 3D graphical applications,making it easy for programmers to rapidly
evolve prototypes using a familiar multi-threaded, object-oriented programming paradigm. All data sharing of both graphical and non-graphical data is done via general-purpose distributed objects, presenting the illusion of a singledistributed shared memory.
