Aim: To give the participants a survey of graphics systems and CAD-systems and enable them to exploit and develop graphics algorithms and graphics programs, which for instance could be used for
-analyzing experimental results and the presentation of data in diagrams
-modelling three dimensional objects and visualization of the models
-solving design and planning problems (CAD) |
Contents: Hardware (graphical processors, output devices, input devices). Construction of important software parts: The geometric modelling part (data and procedure models, boolean operations, and transformations); visualization of the geometric models (windows, viewports, perspective and axonometric transformations, hidden surface removal, shading, raytracing, radiosity); The user interface (user demands, window systems, UIMS); model storages and model administration (representation schemes as wireframe models, surface models and volume models); picture storage, administration and manipulation (raster operations); graphics device drivers. Standardization efforts (GKS, PHIGS, CGI, CGM, Postscript, X-windows, PEX, OpenGL). The basic concepts are illustrated in the exercises. Here the participants develop a small graphics system and furthermore use an advanced CAD-system and develop an application program to that system. |
