Figure 4.2: Example of the interlaced subgrids for a grid of dimensions N x = 6 by<br />

N y = 7 and shears s x = 3 and s y = 2. The relative phases between points in different<br />

subgrids is undetermined by the data.<br />

4.3 Computing performance<br />

An important consideration when comparing alternative reconstruction methods is<br />

their computational requirements. Figure 4.3 a) plots the number of real multiplications<br />

required to perform the wavefront reconstruction over a square grid with a<br />

total of N points and shear s
