Abstract
Most algorithms for curves in Bézier representation have a generalized form for splines. One of the most important spline algorithms is knot insertion. It can be used for degree elevation, the de Boor algorithm and subdivision. In particular, de Casteljau’s algorithm can be understood as a special multiple knot insertion.
