The parasite that causes malaria exports hundreds of proteins to remodel the cells that it infects.

Disney Animation makes heavy use of Ptex [Burley and Lacewell 2008] across our assets [Burley et al. 2018], which required a new texture streaming pipeline for our new real-time ray tracer. Our goal was to create a scalable system which could provide a real-time, zero-stall experience to users at all times, even as the number of Ptex files expands into the tens of thousands. We cap the maximum size of the GPU cache to a relatively small footprint, and employ a fast LRU eviction scheme when we hit the limit.

欧米ではすっかりpdfTeXに移行してPDFを直接生成するワークフローになっているのに、なぜ日本語ではPDFを出力できない(u)pTeXがいまだに生き残っているのか。 簡単に言うと、TeXと事実上互換性があるpdfTeXが発明されたときに、日本語圏のデファクトだったpTeXのことが一切考慮されなかったからである。 このような事情により、pTeXをpdfTeXベースに改修することも、pdfTeXをpTeXとの互換性を最大限に保って日本語に対応させることも、技術的な制約によって無理という状態になった。 pdfTeXベースの日本語TeXを作るには、ぜんぜん違う日本語TeXを改めて作るしかなかったので…

UDIM UV mapping has enormous popularity for texturing in the face of much newer systems such as Ptex (which works very well in its own right). We investigate why & talk to the original author, Richard...
