Focus on 2D in Direct3D? teaches you all of the tools and tips you ll need to dive right in and begin creating your own games. If you have some knowledge of C or C++ and have been searching for a guide that will take your 2D programming into the third dimension, then search no more! In this book you ll learn the skills you ll need to move from the 2D API to Direct3D. Written from the point of view of a 2D programmer, Focus on 2D in Direct3D presents the fundamentals of the Direct3D API in an easy-to-use-and-understand format. Get ready to jump into the world of Direct3D!
The MATLAB coding style, project options and synthesis directives can have a significant effect on the final results. knowledge about how a particular algorithm should be implemented in hardware can be reflected in the MATLAB code to improve the results. In doing so, the MATLAB loses a bit of its abstraction but the lower-level MATLAB will infer the desired architecture into the device.
C++/CLI in Action is a practical guide that will help you breathe new life into your legacy C++ programs. The book begins with a concise C++/CLI tutorial. It then quickly moves to the key themes of native/managed code interop and mixed-mode programming. You抣l learn to take advantage of GUI frameworks like Windows Forms and WPF while keeping your native C++ business logic. The book also covers methods for accessing C# or VB.NET components and libraries. Written for readers with a working knowledge of C++.
The purpose of this lab is to introduce the concept of FSMs with a datapath, and to
study the usage of more complex test benches. Also, we enforce a rudimentary design
methodology by assuming that the students are part of a bigger project, and have no
knowledge of VHDL-implementation of the datapath (made by a hypothetical other
group) other than its predefined Entity Interface until they come to the lab.
The rest of this document is structured as follows: Section 2 describes some prelimi-
nary reading and exercises that should be done before the lab. Section 3 details the
design tasks that should be carried out to pass this lab.
Developers use algorithms and data structures every day of their working lives. Having a good under-standing of these algorithms and knowledge of when to apply them is essential to producing softwarethat not only works correctly, but also performs efficiently.
This book aims to explain those algorithms and data structures most commonly encountered in day-to-day software development, while remaining at all times practical, concise, and to the point, with little orno verbiage to distract from the core concepts and examples.
Writing Your First ASP Application ( Quick Start )
(Page 1 of 8 )
There are many tutorials out there that show you how to program in ASP. Some of them are good, and some are bad. Some of them are downright terrible. In any case, you ve read a bit about ASP and now you are ready to build your first application. But where do you start?
In my own experience, I have found that I find it easier to learn something if I actually work with it hands-on. Just reading a book or documentation doesn’t give you the practical knowledge you need to be able to rush off and start creating applications.
In this article, I will discuss the creation of a very simple application. I will cover what the application will do, how we will approach writing it, demonstrate in code how we will do it, and discuss additional features that could be added to it.

This paper introduces an affine invariant of trapezia, and the explicit constraint equation between the intrinsic matrix of a camera and the similarity invariants of a trapezium are established using the affine invariant. By this constraint, the inner parameters, motion parameters of the cameras and the similarity invariants of trapezia can be linearly determined using some prior knowledge on the cameras or the trapezia. The proposed algorithms have wide applicability since parallel lines are not rare in many scenes. Experimental results validate the proposed approaches. This work presents a unifying framework based on the parallelism constraint, and the previous methods based on the parallelograms or the parallelepipeds can be integrated into this framework.

The ability to write efficient, high-speed arithmetic routines ultimately depends
upon your knowledge of the elements of arithmetic as they exist on a computer. That
conclusion and this book are the result of a long and frustrating search for
information on writing arithmetic routines for real-time embedded systems.
With instruction cycle times coming down and clock rates going up, it would
seem that speed is not a problem in writing fast routines. In addition, math
coprocessors are becoming more popular and less expensive than ever before and are
readily available. These factors make arithmetic easier and faster to use and
implement. However, for many of you the systems that you are working on do not
include the latest chips or the faster processors. Some of the most widely used
microcontrollers used today are not Digital Signal Processors (DSP), but simple
eight-bit controllers such as the Intel 8051 or 8048 microprocessors.
