About the cover images:

The cover image shows the interior of Le Corbusier's Chapel at Ronchamp,


France. The illumination was computed using radiosity, with the sunbeams
added by stochastic ray tracing during rendering [109, 110]. The model was
created by Paul Boudreau, Keith Howie, and Eric Haines with Hewlett-Packard's
ME30 Solid Modeler and rendered by Eric Haines at 3D/EYE, Inc. with Hewlett-
Packard's ARTCore Radiosity and Ray Tracing library.
The image is a frame from the animation The Key is Light presented at the
Siggraph '91 Electronic Theater. The video was produced by Hewlett-Packard
Company TV, with extensive help from Becky Naqvi, John Fujii, and Ron Firooz
at Hewlett-Packard Company.
The back cover image is a radiosity rendering from a scene of Luther's
Tavern in the Opera Tales of Hoffman. The opera lighting design software used
for this image is part of a PhD dissertation by Julie O'Brien Dorsey at Cornell
University's Program of Computer Graphics [73].
