Hardbound. Algorithmic Graph Theory and Perfect Graphs, first published in 1980, has become the classic introduction to the field. This new Annals version continues to convey the message that intersection graph models are a necessary and important tool for solving real-world problems. It remains a stepping stone from which the reader may embark on one of many fascinating research trails. The past twenty years have been an amazingly fruitful period of research in algorithmic graph theory and structured families of graphs. Especially important have been the theory and applications of new intersection graph models such as generalizations of permutation graphs and interval graphs. These have lead to new families of perfect graphs and many algorithmic results. A new Epilogue chapter in this second edition surveys many of the recent results in the area. It also gives pointers for further study. The book has served to unify the topic and to act as a sp

Advanced RenderMan: Creating CGI for Motion Pictures is precisely what you and other RenderMan users are dying for. Written by the world’s foremost RenderMan experts, it offers thoroughly updated coverage of the standard while moving beyond the scope of the original RenderMan Companion to provide in-depth information on dozens of advanced topics. Both a reference and a tutorial, this book will quickly prove indispensable, whether you’re a technical director, graphics programmer, modeler, animator, or hobbyist. Explore the Power of RenderMan * Use the entire range of geometric primitives supported by RenderMan. * Understand how and when to use procedural primitives and level of detail. * Master every nuance of the Shading Language. * Write detailed procedural shaders using texture, displacement, pattern generation, and custom reflection models. * Write shaders for special effects relating to volumes, custom lighting, and…

Book DescriptionRelease your game complete?and on time?to ensure success. The realization of any good idea, or the brilliant and dedicated work of any development team, is in the execution. That is what makes project management as important to game production as the art, programming, and design. Manage your projects with the expertise of a seasoned pro. The Game Developer postmortems are an industry institution because they deliver real-world knowledge of vital project management skills. Written by game developers and producers alike, the postmortems follow projects from start to finish with candid, thorough, and specific accounts of the good and bad decisions made along the way. You learn how each game was made, what kind of company and project team was involved, what tools were used, as well as major milestones. Most importantly, you get an honest account of What Went Right?contributing to the project?s success?and What Went Wrong, a list of…

Do you spend too much time creating the building blocks of your graphics applications or finding and correcting errors? Geometric Tools for Computer Graphics is an extensive, conveniently organized collection of proven solutions to fundamental problems that you’d rather not solve over and over again, including building primitives, distance calculation, approximation, containment, decomposition, intersection determination, separation, and more. If you have a mathematics degree, this book will save you time and trouble. If you don’t, it will help you achieve things you may feel are out of your reach. Inside, each problem is clearly stated and diagrammed, and the fully detailed solutions are presented in easy-to-understand pseudocode. You also get the mathematics and geometry background needed to make optimal use of the solutions, as well as an abundance of reference material contained in a series of appendices. * Filled with robust, thoroughly tested solutions…
