    A procedure of generating a matrix representation for non-uniform rational B-spline (NURB) curves and surfaces is developed. The authors provide the explicit matrix forms up to degree three. They also find that the matrix form of NURB is very efficient and fast compared to the Cox-de Boor recursive forms and Boehm's knot insertion algorithm.
