Abstract
A three-dimensional data storing method for storing three-dimensional (3-D) data on cubical vertices belonging to a cube, the method includes the steps of: index-numbering each vertex of the three-dimensional data so that cubical vertices on the surface belonging commonly to two neighboring cubes have the same index number; classifying the 3-D data according to each index number; and storing the classified 3-D data in a plurality of memories corresponding to each index number, whereby the three-dimensional data can be accessed in parallel.
Claims4
A method for storing three-dimensional (3-D) data on cubical vertices belonging to a cube, said method comprising the steps of:
- index-numbering each vertex of said three-dimensional data so that cubical vertices on a surface belonging commonly to two neighboring cubes have a same index;
- classifying said 3-D data according to each index number;
- and
- storing said classified 3-D data in a plurality of memories corresponding to each index number, thereby providing parallel access to said three-dimensional data.
