penMesh is a generic and efficient data structure for representing and manipulating polygonal meshes. OpenMesh is developed at the Computer Graphics Group, RWTH Aachen , as part of the OpenSGPlus project, is funded by the German Ministry for Research and Education ( BMBF), and will serve as geometry kernel upon which the so-called high level primitives (e.g. subdivision surfaces or progressive meshes) of OpenSGPlus are built.
It was designed with the following goals in mind :
Flexibility : provide a basis for many different algorithms without the need for adaptation.
Efficiency : maximize time efficiency while keeping memory usage as low as possible.
Ease of use : wrap complex internal structure in an easy-to-use interface.
his paper provides a tutorial and survey of methods for parameterizing
surfaces with a view to applications in geometric modelling and computer graphics.
We gather various concepts from di® erential geometry which are relevant to surface
mapping and use them to understand the strengths and weaknesses of the many
methods for parameterizing piecewise linear surfaces and their relationship to one
another.
Solutions are obtained for Poissson, diffusion, or wave PDEs homogeneous or nonhomogeneous equations and/or boundary conditions rectangular, cylindrical, or spherical coordinates time, Laplace, or frequency domains Dirichlet, Neumann, Robin, singular, periodic, or incoming/outgoing boundary conditions. Output is suitable for pasting into LaTeX documents.
Extensively revised for the latest Java (J2SE 5.0) release Deitel Java How to Program, 6/e now includes earlier coverage of objects new and streamlined case studies and OPTIONAL GUI and graphics sections. Now available in a briefer version (ch. 1-10) called Small Java. SafariX version available.
The Microsoft® Cryptographic Application Programming Interface (CryptoAPI) provides services that enable application developers to add authentication, encoding, and encryption to their Microsoft Win32® -based applications. Application developers can use the functions in the CryptoAPI without knowing anything about the underlying implementation, in much the same way as they can use a graphics library without knowing anything about the particular graphics hardware configuration.
