Dear Grass users

I like to have references regarding "Color relief shading"
technique.   

I know how hill shading can be achieved using
grey levels such as developed by B. Horn (1981), but I couldn't find
papers explaining COLOR hill shading algorithms.
My rough guess is the algorithm can be associated with inverse
HSI transform:
               elevation --> hue & saturation

               slope or gray level estimated through relief shading
                         --> intensity

Please let me know if anybody has seen such  papers or has ideas.


Thanks in advance
