Intended as a textbook for students of computer science and management, this study strives to bring the concept of multimedia and computer graphics into a single volume. The book covers most of the scan conversion algorithms and other necessary ingredients for realistic rendering, such as techniques of image clipping, illumination and shading. It lays down the fundamental principles of computer graphics and provides the methodologies and algorithms, which act as building blocks of advanced animation and rendering techniques. The emphasis is clearly on explaining the techniques and the mathematical basis. The book also gives an introductory level description on graphics and audio and video hardware, which is sufficient for understanding some of the intricacies in these fields. Since graphics are best learnt with the help of computer implementation of the graphics algorithm, the pseudocodes and problems at the ends of chapters will encourage readers to implement some of the interesting applications of graphics.

"Cambridge International AS and A Level Computer Science Coursebook delivers an accessible guide to theoretical and practical skills in Computer Science, with a clear progression of tasks that help to consolidate and develop knowledge. Cambridge International AS and A Level Computer Science Coursebook offers students detailed descriptions of the concepts, reinforced with examples that outline complex subject matter in a clear way. Alongside fundamental definitions, higher level programming skills are developed through the explanation of processes and consolidated by practical exam-type questions for students to attempt."-- Publisher description.

Master the process of designing and testing new hardware configurations with DIGITAL SYSTEMS DESIGN USING VERILOG. This practical book integrates coverage of logic design principles, Verilog as a hardware design language, and FPGA implementation. The authors present Verilog constructs side-by-side with hardware, encouraging you to think in terms of desired hardware while writing synthesizable Verilog. Following a review of the basic concepts of logic design, the authors introduce the basics of Verilog using simple combinational circuit examples, followed by models for simple sequential circuits. Subsequent chapters ask you to tackle more and more complex designs.
