With the increasing popularization of the Internet, together with the rapid
development of 3D scanning technologies and modeling tools, 3D model
databases have become more and more common in fields such as biology,
chemistry, archaeology and geography. People can distribute their own 3D works
over the Internet, search and download 3D...
This book will teach you how to create games with the awesome Java language.
Previous editions emphasized the casual game market with chapter projects
designed to run in AppletViewer or in a web browser. While still relevant, the
code in this new edition is a bit simpler, using a JFrame more often instead of an
applet, so that...
This updated third edition illustrates the mathematical concepts that a game developer needs to develop 3D computer graphics and game engines at the professional level. It starts at a fairly basic level in areas such as vector geometry and linear algebra, and then progresses to more advanced topics in 3D programming such as illumination and...
Tags are used in HTML5 to place and organize content at a level
that is descriptive. This does not mean that the page will look
good. Presentation of content on the page is controlled using
Cascading Style Sheets Level 3, or CSS3, in HTML5.
There are times, however, when you need to present graphics,
too. Typically, HTML...

Microsoft Silverlight is a programmable web browser plug-in that enables the animation, vector graphics, and audio-video playback features that characterize Rich Internet Applications. Silverlight is a great (and growing) RIA platform and games are the next level to exploit in it. But it doesn't offer 3D capabilities out of the box and integrating...
Focusing on three applications of data mining, Design and Implementation of Data Mining Tools explains how to create and employ systems and tools for intrusion detection, Web page surfing prediction, and image classification. Mainly based on the authors’ own research work, the book takes a practical approach to the...
This new approach to real analysis stresses the use of the subject in applications, by showing how the principles and theory of real analysis can be applied in a variety of settings in subjects ranging from Fourier series and polynomial approximation to discrete dynamical systems and nonlinear optimization. Users will be prepared for more...
Scientific research on dengue has a long and rich history. The literature has been touched by famous names in medicine- Benjamin Rush, Walter Reed, and Albert Sabin, to name a very few- and has been fertile ground for medical historians . The advances made in those early investigations are all the more remarkable for the limited tools available...
