Summary & Future WorkSo what?

the proposed generic framework can help designing succesful splitting and explosion algorithmsour splitting approach is the first which can effectively subdivide integral surfacesthe complexity measure adequatly approximate the degree of self-occlusion of a surface

And then?extend the approach to path and other kinds of surfaces (or even volumes)improve the versatility of the visualization systemboost performances via a GPU implementation
