Starting Electronics, Third Edition
Автор: Brindley Keith
Год издания:
This book originated as a collection of feature articles, previously published as magazine articles. They were chosen for publication in book form not only because they were so popular with readers in their original magazine appearances but also because they are so relevant in the field of introductory electronics — a subject area in which it is evermore difficult to find information of a technical, knowledgeable, yet understandable nature. This book is exactly that. Since its original publication, I have added significant new material to make sure it is all still highly relevant and up-to-date.
Level of Detail for 3D Graphics
Автор: Luebke David, Reddy Martin, Cohen Jonathan D., Varshney Amitabh, Watson Benjamin, Huebner Robert
Год издания:
Level of Detail - это уровень детализации. Прочитав эту книгу, Вы сможете найти баланс между: потрясной визуализацией или бешеной скоростью.
Level of detail (LOD) techniques are increasingly used by professional real-time developers to strike the balance between breathtaking virtual worlds and smooth, flowing animation. Level of Detail for 3D Graphics brings together, for the first time, the mechanisms, principles, practices, and theory needed by every graphics developer seeking to apply LOD methods.
Continuing advances in level of detail management have brought this powerful technology to the forefront of 3D graphics optimization research. This book, written by the very researchers and developers who have built LOD technology, is both a state-of-the-art chronicle of LOD advances and a practical sourcebook, which will enable graphics developers from all disciplines to apply these formidable techniques to their own work.
* Is a complete, practical resource for programmers wishing to incorporate LOD technology into their own systems.
* Is an important reference for professionals in game development, computer animation, information visualization, real-time graphics and simulation, data capture and preview, CAD display, and virtual worlds.
* Is accessible to anyone familiar with the essentials of computer science and interactive computer graphics.
* Covers the full range of LOD methods from mesh simplification to error metrics, as well as advanced issues of human perception, temporal detail, and visual fidelity measurement.
* Includes an accompanying Web site rich in supplementary material including source code, tools, 3D models, public domain software, documentation, LOD updates, and more. Visit http://LODBook.com.

Автор: А. Б. Бергер
Год издания:
Книга, написанная разработчиками Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services, дает читателю полное представление об его функционировании и устройстве. В ней рассмотрены основы многомерного анализа данных и дано глубокое представление о многомерных моделях данных и устройстве OLAP-сервера. Описаны основные концепции языка доступа к многомерным данным MDX и его расширенные возможности, а также архитектура сервера, методы обработки данных и алгоритмы доступа к данным. Приведены внутренние и внешние протоколы обмена данными, включая протокол XML/A. Рассмотрены алгоритмы управления ресурсами Analysis Services, в том числе алгоритмы управления памятью. Описан процесс создания эффективных клиентских приложений с использованием Analysis Services, механизмы интеграции многомерных и реляционных баз данных. Уделено внимание безопасности, а также администрированию Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services. Для разработчиков и бизнес-аналитиков.
