Here's an effort to document some of the academic work that was
referenced during the implementation of cairo. It is presented in the
context of operations as they would be performed by either
cairo_stroke() or cairo_fill():

Given a Bézier path, approximate it with line segments:

The deCasteljau algorithm
	"Outillages methodes calcul", P de Casteljau, technical
	report, - Andre Citroen Automobiles SA, Paris, 1959

That technical report might be "hard" to find, but fortunately
	this algorithm will be described in any reasonable textbook on
	computational geometry. Two that have been recommended by
	cairo contributors are:

"Computational Geometry, Algorithms and Applications", M. de
	Berg, M. van Kreveld, M. Overmars, M. Schwarzkopf;
	Springer-Verlag, ISBN: 3-540-65620-0.

"Computational Geometry in C (Second Edition)", Joseph
	O'Rourke, Cambridge University Press, ISBN 0521640105.

Then, if stroking, construct a polygonal representation of the pen
approximating a circle (if filling skip three steps):

"Good approximation of circles by curvature-continuous Bezier
	curves", Tor Dokken and Morten Daehlen, Computer Aided
	Geometric Design 8 (1990) 22-41.

Add points to that pen based on the initial/final path faces and take
the convex hull:

Convex hull algorithm

[Again, see your favorite computational geometry
	textbook. Should cite the name of the algorithm cairo uses
	here, if it has a name.]

Now, "convolve" the "tracing" of the pen with the tracing of the path:

"A Kinetic Framework for Computational Geometry", Leonidas
        J. Guibas, Lyle Ramshaw, and Jorge Stolfi, Proceedings of the
        24th IEEE Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science
        (FOCS), November 1983, 100-111.

The result of the convolution is a polygon that must be filled. A fill
operations begins here. We use a very conventional Bentley-Ottmann
pass for computing the intersections, informed by some hints on robust
implementation courtesy of John Hobby:

John D. Hobby, Practical Segment Intersection with Finite
	Precision Output, Computation Geometry Theory and
	Applications, 13(4), 1999.

http://cm.bell-labs.com/who/hobby/93_2-27.pdf

Hobby's primary contribution in that paper is his "tolerance square"
algorithm for robustness against edges being "bent" due to restricting
intersection coordinates to the grid available by finite-precision
arithmetic. This is one algorithm we have not implemented yet.

We use a data-structure called Skiplists in the our implementation
of Bentley-Ottmann:

W. Pugh, Skip Lists: a Probabilistic Alternative to Balanced Trees,
	Communications of the ACM, vol. 33, no. 6, pp.668-676, 1990.

http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/pugh90skip.html

The random number generator used in our skip list implementation is a
very small generator by Hars and Petruska.  The generator is based on
an invertable function on Z_{2^32} with full period and is described
in

Hars L. and Petruska G.,
	``Pseudorandom Recursions: Small and Fast Pseurodandom
	  Number Generators for Embedded Applications'',
	Hindawi Publishing Corporation
	EURASIP Journal on Embedded Systems
	Volume 2007, Article ID 98417, 13 pages
	doi:10.1155/2007/98417

From the result of the intersection-finding pass, we are currently
computing a tessellation of trapezoids, (the exact manner is
undergoing some work right now with some important speedup), but we
may want to rasterize directly from those edges at some point.

Given the set of tessellated trapezoids, we currently execute a
straightforward, (and slow), point-sampled rasterization, (and
currently with a near-pessimal regular 15x17 grid).

We've now computed a mask which gets fed along with the source and
destination into cairo's fundamental rendering equation. The most
basic form of this equation is:

destination = (source IN mask) OP destination

with the restriction that no part of the destination outside the
current clip region is affected. In this equation, IN refers to the
Porter-Duff "in" operation, while OP refers to a any user-selected
Porter-Duff operator:
