Combining Single and Packet-Ray Tracing for Arbitrary Ray Distributions on the Intel MIC Architecture

Wide-SIMD hardware is power and area efficient, but it is challenging to efficiently map ray tracing algorithms to such hardware especially when the rays are incoherent. The two most commonly used schemes are either packet tracing, or relying on a separate traversal stack for each SIMD lane. Both wo...
