Curve and surface construction using Hermite subdivision schemes

In this paper we present a very efficient Hermite subdivision scheme, based on rational functions, and outline its potential applications, with special emphasis on the construction of cubic-like B-splines - well suited for the design of constrained curves and surfaces.
