ABSTRACT:
A distributed multiresolution modeling system has a database management system on a first server. The database management system provides access to a hierarchical tree representation of surfaces of geometric models. Client programs executing on computers connected to the first server accesses and updates the model by traversing the hierarchical tree representation until a terminating criterion has been satisfied. During the traversal the client programs request quad-tree nodes from the database management system.
