  abstract =   "We present an approach for direct rendering of natural
               phenomena such as trees, plants or mountains from a
               procedural representation at interactive frame rates. Our
               approach is based on directed cyclic graphs. It allows to
               represent extremely complex scenes with little memory and
               modeling effort. Very large scale virtual environments are
               supported by a bandwidth-preserving networking approach that
               makes use of the compact representation and on-the-fly
               database amplification.",
