Download or read book Object Oriented and Mixed Programming Paradigms written by Peter Wisskirchen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The area of computer graphics is characterized by rapid evolution. New techniques in hardware and software developments, e. g. , new rendering methods, have led to new ap plications and broader acceptance of graphics in fields such as scientific visualization, multi-media applications, computer aided design, and virtual reality systems. The evolving functionality and the growing complexity of graphics algorithms and sys tems make it more difficult for the application programmer to take full advantage of these systems. Conventional programming methods are no longer suited to manage the increasing complexity, so new programming paradigms and system architectures are re quired. One important step in this direction is the introduction and use of object-oriented methods. Intuition teils us that visible graphical entities are objects, and experience has indeed shown that object-oriented software techniques are quite useful for graphics. The expressiveness of object-oriented languages compared to pure procedurallanguages gives the graphics application programmer much better support when transforming his mental intentions into computer code. Moreover, object-oriented software development is a, weil founded technology, allowing software to be built from reusable and extensible compo nents. This book contains selected, reviewed and thoroughly revised vers ions of papers submit ted to and presented at the Fourth Eurographies Workshops on Object-Oriented Graphics, held on May 9-11, 1994 in Sintra, Portugal.

Download or read book Computer Graphics written by Neeta Nain and published by Vikas Publishing House. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book adopts a conceptual approach to computer graphics, with emphasis on mathematical concepts and their applications. It introduces an abstract paradigm that relates the mathematical concepts with computer graphic techniques and implementation methods. This model is intended to help the reader understand the mathematical concepts and their practical use. However, mathematical complexity has not been allowed to dominate. The haul mark of the book is its profuse solved examples which aid in the understanding of mathematical concepts.The text is supplemented with introduction to various graphics standards, animation, multimedia techniques and fractals. These topics are of immense use in each of the three visual disciplines: modeling transformations, projections and multi-view geometry for computer vision. Geometry of lines, vectors and planes is essential for any geometric computation problem, light and illumination for image-based rendering, and hidden surface removal. Almost every chapter has the working source code to illustrate the concepts, which could be written and used as small programs for better understanding of the topics. A concise appendix of open source OpenGL is also included to showcase programming concepts of computer graphics and visualization.The text is completely platform-independent and the only prerequisite is the knowledge of coordinate geometry and basic algebra. It will be useful both as a text and reference, thus it can easily be used by novices and experienced practitioners alike.

Download or read book An Integrated Introduction to Computer Graphics and Geometric Modeling written by Ronald Goldman and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-09-18 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking a novel, more appealing approach than current texts, An Integrated Introduction to Computer Graphics and Geometric Modeling focuses on graphics, modeling, and mathematical methods, including ray tracing, polygon shading, radiosity, fractals, freeform curves and surfaces, vector methods, and transformation techniques. The author begins with fractals, rather than the typical line-drawing algorithms found in many standard texts. He also brings the turtle back from obscurity to introduce several major concepts in computer graphics. Supplying the mathematical foundations, the book covers linear algebra topics, such as vector geometry and algebra, affine and projective spaces, affine maps, projective transformations, matrices, and quaternions. The main graphics areas explored include reflection and refraction, recursive ray tracing, radiosity, illumination models, polygon shading, and hidden surface procedures. The book also discusses geometric modeling, including planes, polygons, spheres, quadrics, algebraic and parametric curves and surfaces, constructive solid geometry, boundary files, octrees, interpolation, approximation, Bezier and B-spline methods, fractal algorithms, and subdivision techniques. Making the material accessible and relevant for years to come, the text avoids descriptions of current graphics hardware and special programming languages. Instead, it presents graphics algorithms based on well-established physical models of light and cogent mathematical methods.
