Abstract :
The author considers the application of the principle of triage to computer graphics to speed up certain types of algorithms. He describes a very simple data structure that he has used to keep track of triage information in several situations. He applies his method to Warnock´s algorithm and to a hidden-line-elimination problem.<>
