  abstract =   "In interactive 3-D graphics, the amount of geometric
               primitives passed to the display algorithm frequently
               exceeds rendering capacity. Visibility computation is used
               to reduce the amount of geometry that must be passed to the
               rendering engine. In this paper we propose an algorithm that
               exploits coherence to accelerate visibility computation in 2
               1/2D and can be used for both, on-the-fly computation of
               potentially visible sets, and for accelerated generation of
               spans for a simple 2 1/2D rendering                 engine.",
