A high-speed automatic image drawing apparatus divides a three-dimensional object to draw into primitives that can be drawn at a high speed, and draws an image of the object according to the primitives by gradually changing lightness and chromaticity. The image thus provided has a material-like impression. The apparatus comprises a primitive forming unit for dividing the three-dimensional object to draw into predetermined shapes and forming primitives according to the shapes, and a grading unit for drawing the object according to the primitives by gradually changing lightness and chromaticity. In response to a request of drawing a three-dimensional object, the primitive forming unit divides the object into predetermined shapes, and forms primitives for the shapes. Thereafter, the grading unit draws an image of the object according to the primitives by gradually changing lightness and chromaticity.

Automatic apparatus for drawing image of three-dimensional object on a

A data conversion apparatus includes a plurality of computers connected to a network, a storage section, a retrieval section, data conversion processing sections, and a control section. The storage section stores plural sorts of information on the converter including a name of a computer equipped with a converter, a way of using the converter. A retrieval section retrieves information on the subject converter from the storage section according to a conversion request from a computer which requesting data conversion. The data conversion processing sections are connected to the respective computers and converts data into data of a format to be used with the converter on the basis of the result retrieved by the retrieval section. The control section controls the retrieval processing of the retrieval section and the conversion processing of the data conversion processing section to output converted data to the computer which requests data conversion.

Method of converting data and device for performing the method

A multiprocess input system includes a first process execution part for processing input data, a second process execution part for processing the input data, and a third process execution part for distributing the input data to the first and second process execution part. The third process execution part is provided with a data storage request receiving part for receiving from the first process execution part storage start conditions for starting storage of the input data and identification information related to the second process execution part and for storing the storage start conditions and the identification information related to the second process execution part, an input data storage part for starting storage of the input data when the storage start conditions stored in the data storage request receiving part are satisfied and for notifying the first process execution part of the start of the data storage, an identification information collating part for collating the identification information stored in the data storage request receiving part and identification information received from the second process execution part, and a stored data transmitting part for transmitting the input data stored in the data storage request receiving part to the second process execution part when the two identification information collated in the identification information collating part match.
