                         rendering of unstructured meshes and propose a new hardware-based 
                         ray-casting algorithm using partial pre-integration. The proposed 
                         algorithm makes use of modern programmable graphics card and 
                         achieves rendering rates competitive with full pre-integration 
                         approaches (up to 2M tet/sec). This algorithm allows the 
                         interactive modification of the transfer function and results in 
                         high-quality images, since no artifact due to under-sampling the 
                         full numerical pre-integration exists. We also compare our 
                         approach with implementations of cell-projection algorithm and 
                         demonstrate that ray-casting can perform better than cell 
                         projection, because it eliminates the high costs involved in 
                         ordering and transferring data.",
