Organizations planning enterprise data center consolidation and modernization projects are faced with a challenging, costly reality. Requirements to deploy modern, cloud-native applications simultaneously with traditional client/server applications are almost impossible to achieve with hardware-centric enterprise infrastructure. Compute and network infrastructure are fast moving down a software-defined path, but storage has been a laggard. Until now.

A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

Coffee Tables
A well-chosen coffee table from west elm's extensive furniture collection combines form and function, serving as a useful surface for everything from morning coffee to the evening news while creating a focal point for any living space. A stunning marble-topped pedestal coffee table on a spun metal base is a durable option that has an elegant sophistication yet is sturdy enough for people to put their feet up if they want to. Tiered coffee tables bring home decor to a new level, creating interest with surfaces at varying heights. When choosing the table, consider the available space carefully. Round tables take up less room, and if they have a glass top, they help to maintain a sense of spaciousness, even in cramped surroundings. Console tables have a range of purposes, providing additional storage solutions, and making a welcoming first impression for guests when situated in the entrance hallway with a mirror and some flowers. It is also possible to use a console table to create a home office, bedroom vanity or home bar with the correct accessories.
For homeowners requiring additional surfaces for when guests come to call, side tables are an obvious solution. Nesting tables take up little room but are always on hand for providing an extra surface for a game of cards or a coffee morning. Terrace side tables are another great space-saving option, using several levels to maximize the surface area while maintaining a small footprint. Any of these products helps to make a space more useable for everyday living and special occasions.

That score was set up by an interception by Wildcat cornerback Kela Marciel, who also threw a two-point conversion pass to — what's this? — defensive end Trevor Pletcher after WSU's C.J. Tuckett scored on a 1-yard touchdown plunge in the fourth quarter.
That made it 29-19 and, after Pavel's fourth field goal pushed the Eagles' lead to 32-19, Hoke struck again on an 18-yard TD toss to Erik Walker with 3:43 to play. Shaun McClain, whose 44-yard field goal provided Weber's only first-half points, tacked on the PAT to make it 32-26, and the 'Cats still had a chance.
But after Weber's defense held and got the ball back for the offense, Hoke, who completed 17-of-34 passes for 249 yards and two TDs — several other catchable passes were dropped by his receivers — and rushed for another 50 yards, was stripped of the ball near midfield as the Wildcats were driving for a potential go-ahead score in the final minute. It was eerily similar to the way the Wildcats lost to the Eagles last year at Cheney, Wash.
"As far as that last drive, everybody knew we was going to do it, everybody knew we was going to win," said Weber State sophomore wide receiver Xavian Johnson, who had six catches for a career-high 133 yards. "We had it, we had it in us. We do it in practice every day. We had it in us. We were too inconsistent and made too many mistakes."
WSU's interim head coach Jody Sears refused to be discouraged by the defeat or his team's 0-4 overall, 0-1 Big Sky start.
"I really like the way our leaders took control of that locker room at halftime," he said. "It was awesome, absolutely awesome. I don't know that I said maybe five or six words. It was all about the attitude and the energy, and I'm really pleased with the way they came back in that second half and attacked it.
"We've got to take this and learn from it and get better. ... We've got to take the positives and build on it, and take the deficiencies and make it a strength, take the weaknesses and make it a strength. ... We're not going to sweep stuff under the carpet, we're going to attack it head-on."

US mid-term results pose challenges and opportunities for gay rights

"Losing control of Congress may make it difficult for President Obama to repeal Don't Ask, Don't Tell in the next year"
Big deal.
Obama had 2 years to repeal DADT and DOMA but he pissed away his chance. He never had any intention of advancing LGBT equality. His promises to the LGBT community were barefaced lies.
Therefore it does not really matter that the Republic**ts won the House.
The most generous description I can think of for the Democratic Party in the US is the 'lesser of 2 evils'. They are certainly not committed in any sense to LGBT equality. They promise the world in order to get LGBT votes and donations, but as soon as it is convenient for them, they will throw us under the bus.
Obama is a slimy, opportunistic career politician like all the rest. I cannot believe what a failure he has been on his pre-electtion promises.
yeah plain will look after you
I agree David. Obama is a fraud just like all politicians.
Obama's not superman. He can't just make laws whenever he feels like it – he has to have the approval of a whole bunch of senators, many of whom are Republican d**ks who will just veto anything that is good for the world.
That said, you do have to wonder what the point of having a President is if he's doing all he can and this is the result.
Like most pollies, he was an orator-windbag but a non doer.
Voters fall for oral jobs at every election.
Peter in Brisbane; I fall for oral blow jobs every time! Vote for me, Leo the Queero!
I'm tempted to say the only real difference will be that the Democrats will have someone else to blame now for not getting anywhere on our issues, but the truth is we lost some valuable allies in the House who actually did do a lot for us, or at least tried to.
A record 106 openly gay candidates were elected to public office this year, so there's some good news at least.
The House voted to repeal DADT. So Democrats did try to do somthing. Repeal could still happen in the Senate if moderate Republicans agree to vote for cloture.
The U.S. President is not a dictator. He need Congress to work with him.
And we binational couples can kiss our hopes goodbye of getting an immigration reform were we will not end up as the first casualty on the negotiation table. If it will come at all to that, very doubtful now — and maybe it's a good thing. Better not have voted on something this important than having a bad vote — or worse: than having it passed and your own hopes dashed pretty much forever. :-(
The Democrats had 2 years to make advances on LGBT rights before this election.
Obama made specific promises to the LGBT community before he was elected.
He failed to deliver ANY of his promises.
He was, and is full of meaningless hot air.
Nothing WILL be achieved under the Republicans. Nothing WAS achieved under the Democrats.
I suspect that a massive LGBT civil rights uprising, like the African-American uprising in the 1960's will be required to achieve LGBT advances in the undemocratic USA.
Politics has failed.
He is a just a typical deceiving black man, what do you expect????!!!!!
Paul is a typical racist, what do you expect?
Not that I like obama in any shape or form, the man is a corporate puppet – reading from a tele prompter and designed to deceive the people and prop up wall street. But saying that his genetics which give happen to give him a slighter darker skin pigmentation is the reason he is incompetent is stupid as hell. It's like calling bush a typical deceiving white man.

Labour's deputy leader David Parker has offered to defend Green Party co-leader Russel Norman against defamation action launched by Colin Craig.
The Conservative Party leader is demanding a retraction and apology from Norman. It is understood the complaint relates to Norman suggesting at Auckland's Big Day Out that Mr Craig thought a woman's place was in the kitchen and a gay man's in the closet.
Craig said the claims were ''defamatory, sexist, derogatory and offensive'' and ''just wrong''.
''It is a defamatory thing and I would consider that somebody who thinks those sorts of things would have a lower standing in the eyes of the public… he's crossed the line.''
Norman has refused to resile from his comments, however, saying Craig's views were ''offensive''.
''Colin Craig's approach to politics of using expensive lawyers to try to tell other politicians what they can and cannot say is not the best way that we should do politics in New Zealand,'' he said.
''It has a chilling effect on free speech if you have to pass everything in front of a defamation lawyer before you can say it.''
His characterisation of Craig's comments was a ''metaphor'' to illustrate his views, he said.
''I was not saying Mr Craig is a bad person, I don't believe Mr Craig is a bad person, but I do strenuously disagree with his views about gay New Zealanders and about women New Zealanders.''
Craig's past comments about the promiscuity of New Zealand women and gay relationships not being not normal ''belong in 1950s New Zealand'', he said.
Parker, a lawyer and former attorney-general, defended Dr Norman's claim as ''absolutely fair comment''.
''The idea politicians can't make value judgments is wrong and if Colin Craig is so silly as to think he can repress public criticisms of his extreme positions he is both wrong in law and principle and I will be one of many lawyers to offer to represent him for free in court. It's a nonsense.''
Prime Minister John Key said legal action in those kinds of circumstances was often a "waste of time''.
"If I started taking legal action against everyone who'd said bad things about me, my lawyers would be busy too,'' he said.
It's not the first time Craig has taken the legal route over statements made about him.
Early last year he launched a defamation suit against Ben Uffindell, publisher of the satirical news site The Civilian.
The site had published a story about floods in Nelson, Waikato and Bay of Plenty being caused by the passing of the Marriage Amendment Bill.
In December, Television New Zealand was required by the Broadcasting Standards Authority to issue an on air apology for an item about him, which ran on Seven Sharp.
Craig's lawyer John MacKay has written to Norman saying the comments were defamatory as it "harms his reputation to say that he holds such sexist, derogatory and offensive views about women and gay men''.
"Neither the context of an election year, nor the occasion of the Big Gay Out provide you with a licence to say anything you like about Mr Craig,'' the letter said.
He demanded an apology and retraction to an audience similar in size to the one that heard Dr Norman's original comments, which were also broadcast on TV.
Further action could be taken if no such apology and retraction was made, he said.

1) LGBT groups react to resignation of Pope Benedict XVI.
"I'm optimistic, I think that the new Pope could only be a better one. The Vatican has understood that they have made a lot of mistakes, on human rights, on LGBT rights, on condoms, on new families and on modern needs of contemporary people," Giuseppina la Delfa, gay family group Famiglie Arcobaleno's president, tells GSN.
2) A bisexual teenager hangs himself after being bullied.
According to GSN, "the body of a teenager found hanged in woodland in Lancashire has been revealed as 16-year-old Anthony Stubbs, a young father who had reportedly been bullied for being bisexual."
1) Pennsylvania Rep. Brian Sims talks to ESPN about coming out.
"The truth is I was gay my whole life," Sims tells ESPN. "I had dated girls in high school. I think I knew I wasn't straight long before I knew I was gay. I knew by the time I got to college that I was gay. My team actually came to me to ask me whether I was gay. They wanted to talk about it. They asked me about the struggle and when I was going to tell people. I didn't go through the same struggles as people today. Today, you have 14-, 15-, 16-year-olds so confident and secure in their sexuality. I was not. I wasn't a gay 17-year-old ready to come out to the world. When I got to college, I realized I was gay. I just didn't know how to go about it. My college didn't have a LGBT group to give me the language to come out. It was my quarterback who asked me first."
2) Colorado moves closer to legalizing civil unions.
3) Meanwhile, in Iowa, GOP lawmakers aren't focused on same-sex marriage.

The Hospital for Special Surgery has opened a child and family-centered hospital within the hospital: the new Lerner Children's Pavilion. The No. 1 hospital for orthopedics in the country now offers a one-stop solution for families of children affected by musculoskeletal conditions.
The Pavilion offers specialists, medical labs, and rehabilitation and focuses on pediatric orthopedics and rheumatology, both of which they have consistently been ranked top in the country. The 31,000-square-foot space features 10 private patient rooms with in-room accommodations for family members; orthopedically safe play areas for patients and siblings; and a pediatric gym—all in a nature-influenced design, including a floor made of recycled glass.
"The new Pavilion will allow our team to do what we do the best with more efficiency and in a more family-centric way." says Roger Widmann, M.D., chief of pediatric orthopedic surgery at HSS. "At HSS we strongly believe that when it comes to fast-growing bones, there's no time to lose."
The pediatric specialists are experts in treating limb deformity, spine disorders and scoliosis, fractures, pediatric sports injuries, cerebral palsy, juvenile arthritis, and lupus in children newborn to 21 years old.

John Beeden did not just traverse the Pacific Ocean. He crossed it in every sense. He got across it and he got it cross. He made it mad. It kept throwing horrible cross-currents at him, buffeting him with apocalyptic winds. The ocean wouldn't let him sleep.
But John and the world's largest body of water (165 million square kilometres in area) ultimately made their peace. He gave it many pounds of his body weight (not very great to begin with — he has a marathoner's lean build) and paid it all kinds of respect (it was more formidable than its little brother the Atlantic, which John also crossed).
In turn the great Pacific let him live and gave him its far shore.
John, 53, took the better part of a year — 209 days to cross. He travelled 14,000 kilometres, and estimates it cost him about four million strokes, which sounds like my golf game.
The strokes he means are rowing strokes. John, who lives in Burlington with wife Cheryl and his two daughters, rowed across the Pacific, diagonally from northern to southern hemisphere, alone, non-stop, unassisted, in a specially adapted boat, Socks II, equipped with a de-salinator, navigation equipment, satellite phone and camera.
"It's a Yorkshire thing," he says about the boat's name, Socks. "I've been running (he was a marathoner) since my teens in Yorkshire, and in Yorkshire we'd say, 'Pull your socks up and get on with it.'"
"Get on with it" is a mantra he had to repeat often on his voyage. "At times I didn't know if I could cope," he says. But he drove himself on, against great odds.
The extreme difficulty of the journey is one reason it has never been done before.
John is the first to make the crossing, north to south. Others have rowed from South America to Australia but never over the Equator, which John did, and that's the crux of the challenge. The currents and the cross-winds around the Equator are diabolical.
John sailed from San Francisco to Cairns, Australia. It took him about a month longer than he'd scheduled. I talked to him via email in November, which was perhaps the worst patch. He sounded not so much down or discouraged, but grim in his determination, almost brooding, like Captain Ahab, albeit nicer.
Again the Yorkshireman in him would not countenance any candy-coating. He was realistic about his pain and poor prospects with me and others in his email circle and in his blogs.
"Been up (not sleeping), as the boat has been yawing all night, the mixed swell is pushing hard in different directions," he wrote.
Later he added, "I'm exhausted again and missed sleep. The SE wind is still low, it's lighter but I'm still rowing into it as a headwind which is killing any speed. I'm sure you guys feel like your re-reading the same page every day and I sure feel like I'm bashing my head against the same brick wall."
Bashing his head against a wall. That was because he got pushed more than 500 kilometres off course by relentlessly defeating currents, wind shifts, and wave storms that made it an incessant struggle not to be borne backwards on a body of water with an agenda of its own.
When the currents were inhospitable, he could sleep only at the expense of his progress being clawed back. He slept in a small cabin under the shell of his rowboat. Even when conditions were good, John would row for 14 or 15 hours a day, catching sleep sporadically when he could. He lived on freeze-dried food, high calorie snacks and protein bars. Occasionally he fished something out of the ocean.
When I ran a story on him in November, a group of Erica Read's Grade 6/7 students at Westview Public School started emailing him. He would answer their questions. They would encourage him.
Things finally improved for John and he finished his amazing voyage (all self-financed), in late December 2015. He rowed into port at Cairns to the fanfare and salutations of the Australians, many of them in a greeting flotilla of sailboats. It was an incredible feeling, he says.
Last month he visited those students at Westview.
What he brought with him was a video full of astounding visuals. Footage of the most eye-popping skies — brilliant sunsets and sunrises, brewing storms, night skies — and some frighteningly beautiful and dramatic views of the mighty ocean itself, its churning waves, its sharks and dolphins surfacing around the boat.
The video chronicles the toll that the trip took on John, his emaciated figure, his hands looking like molten wax from gripping oars the whole day long.
Throbbing up through these visuals, in the first part of the video, are the rousing crescendos of Adele's "Rolling In The Deep," a more aptly titled song hardly imaginable.
The students hungrily asked questions. How did he handle the isolation?
"There was solitude but essentially I was not alone. In some ways (through email, blogs and other computer communications on the boat) I was more connected with people than I normally am." He heard from people he hadn't spoken to in years.
In fact, while on his journey, John kept a hand in the running of the event company he owns with his wife, though admittedly he says, she did most of the work while he was away. Their firm puts on, among other things, the exhibition and trade show that accompanies the London (England) Marathon.
Though he was rowing all day long, it wasn't monotonous as he had to tailor his rowing to the conditions. So the rowing strokes varied from minute to minute.
He was well-equipped and his boat was specially designed to withstand extremes of weather and water conditions. He left the north in the summer and by the time it was winter here, he was in the southern hemisphere where seasons are reversed.
"My bum was sore and my hands were sore but at the end of the day this is something I decided to do and there are no excuses. You can choose your attitude."
Near the end of his talk to the Westview students John said, "I'm just a normal guy who decided to row out to sea."
In a way he looks it.
But when you sit with him in his home as I did and hear him talk about his motivation, you feel — what to call it? — this iron fierceness of vision, this concentrated intensity. And then he seems far from average. From whence this impression comes is hard to say. His voice? His will? His arms? His eyes? Whatever, it enabled him to stare down two oceans and row their widths.
But you should know this about him. In 2010 he had open heart surgery to correct a congenital malformation, a bicuspid aortic valve. Within three weeks of the operation, he was walking 10 miles a day. A year after the surgery, he got into a boat on the shores of Africa and rowed across the Atlantic, to South America. In 53 days, second fastest crossing every recorded.
Of course, there is the question — why?
It's complicated.
Part of the Atlantic journey was proving himself to himself after the surgery, satisfying doubts about his ability to still do the almost undoable.
Part of it is the Yorkshire backbone and tenacity and his desire, he says, to show by example, to his children or anyone else who needs reminding, that the seemingly impossible is often not. Part of it is self-knowledge, self-definition. How can one know the delineation, the outlines, of one's self without pressing against the limits of character, endurance and ability, and trying whether those limits are fixed firm or can be reset.
"I'm very passionate about education," John told the students at Westview. "There are opportunities to break down walls, cross barriers. No challenge is too big."
He acknowledges that some find what he's done "irresponsible." He's been asked how he could leave everything behind, put himself and possibly others in danger? But he always had his family's support, he says. And he did his trips as responsibly as possible, taking every precaution, and would never call for any help that would endanger others.
"I was never terrified," he says, of either crossing. "It's been a long time since someone died" on these ocean attempts. As bad as things got, he always felt some remnant of control.
But, after the Atlantic, why the Pacific?
"It (the Atlantic) wasn't enough," he tells me. "I thought it was going to feel bigger." He knew it even before he finished crossing the Atlantic.
"I know. It seems a twisted logic." But it was something he had to do; something "bigger."
No challenge too big.
And now? He says the Pacific was tough enough. "It was tougher than I thought."
If you asked the Pacific, it might say the same thing about him.

Conceptual Design of Double-Feed Reactive Distillation Columns
The feasibility and feasible range of operating parameters for double-feed reactive distillation columns are evaluated, based on the combination of pinch point map analysis for the middle-section in the compositional space and the feed angle method as an efficient shortcut design method. Limiting bounds for operating parameters are determined where the properties of singular points change. The existence and values of such bounds may vary in double-feed reactive distillation columns depending on the nature of the system under study. The methodology is illustrated by production of methyl acetate and ethyl acetate. An efficient method is described to identify the most promising candidates of double-feed reactive distillation columns and to study the design flexibility in terms of operating parameters.

· topics from other areas such as AI, physics and collision detection, that are used in games;
· the software technology of games - engine architecture and multi-player technology.
The text is written around the engine Fly3D (included with a full SDK on the CD) that implements most of the described techniques. Readers can try out their own ideas by writing source code and experiment with existing demonstrations by writing plug-ins and altering existing ones. You can even develop your own game.
Features of the game engine include-
· BSP/PVS render management
· Light Maps for static geometry (pre-computed lighting with soft shadows)
· Normal maps (dot product texture blending) for dynamic objects
· Diffuse and specular vertex lighting for dynamic objects
· Volumetric fog with fog maps
· Detail Textures
· Multi-texture support
· Collision detection
· Dynamic coloured lights with distance attenuation
· Dynamic shadows - lightmap or stencil shadow volumes
· Physically based simulations
· Animated meshes (vertex morph)
· Tri-strips and fans
· Subdivision Surfaces
· Dynamic LODs using bi-quadric Bezier meshes
· Cartoon like rendering with dynamic cartoon lighting
· Multiplayer support (TCP/IP) with client/server architecture (using DirectPlay)
· 3D sound support (using DirectSound)
· Mouse and Keyboard input (using DirectInput)
· Intel ® Pentium III vector and matrix maths optimisation
· Complete plug-in directed
· 3D Max plug-ins for export/import fly bsp levels and creating landscapes and animated meshes
· Editor with real-time preview of game (set up game and object parameters while playing)
Sections of the book have been designed to be self-contained. The areas covered are-
· Modelling and Foundation Maths
· Classical 3D Graphics
· Real-time rendering
· Control of Objects - dynamics - AI
· 2D Technology

Overall, if you do not have any other books on computer graphics programming then this book is a good purchase.
It thoroughly explores all the background, currently used methods and algorithms. Sometimes in far more detail than us mortals really need. Be prepared for a barrage of maths I could barely follow (and I've got a maths degree!) but remember that you don't have to understand it all, just the principals.
Where the book falls short, is in terms of a practical appliaction. While it does include the source code for a simple 3D engine and tutorials on how to use it. It doesn't cover much in terms of the software you'd have to use. i.e. DirectX or OpenGL.
I don't regret buying it, but you will need to use it in conjunction with another reference.
Hey, after reading a book this complex, the DirectX SDK seems like a piece of cake. :)
Most Helpful Customer Reviews on Amazon.com (beta)
The good
1.) No API's are covered. Anyone can learn OpenGL/DirectX, and many tutorials cover those topics quite well. However, this covers the math, algorithms, and 3D side of things (for most part). Some code snippets are included, though--but its not a teach yourself OpenGL in 21 days book (thank god). It also has the best coverage of BSP tree's I've seen aside from dedicated algorithm books. And the coverage on PVS seems a tad brief, but the SDK src code makes up for it.
2.) The src code on the CD is great-- its a load of code to sift through-- not the best code, not the most bug-free--indeed, but good code to learn from. OpenGL stuff is in there, stuff that uses STL and modern C++ techniques, and BSP and PVS code. What more can you ask for in a book? This book comes with a working 3d engine and its source code. I can't think of any book that covers the topics well because the guy implemented what he was writing about. Thats why the book is above average, you get the juicy details along with theory.
3.) Has some cool pictures and visuals of varying effects. Not exactly needed for the professional 3d coder, but sometimes a little eyecandy and visuals doesnt hurt in an otherwise intense book.
The ugly
1.) The last 190 pages cover the SDK he wrote. This could have been better left offline, I think - on a CD-ROM. It gives you some insight on how a 3d API *might* look, or how file formats might look, but who cares. I want more 3d stuff in there, next time fool.
2.) The PVS section could have had a tad more detail. I want the most detail on the hardest topics, and the most briviety on the eastest topics.
3.) The collision detection could have had a more detail. I think the coverage was average, and by finding a few references in the back that should complete it. But, I'm willing to bet if you can implement BSP trees, then collision detection should be easy, I mean as far as math goes. Therefore, the higher level overview is sufficient probably for the coder to get the rest working on his own. But still Watts, its important and you should know it gets neglated way too much. Stop negletating the essentials people!
4.) What the heck is that image analysis, DCT and FFT thing about? Seems like a waste of space, doesnt cover it in enough detail dude. Come on, FFT's are discussed in a digital signal processing book. You cant do it justice there, I dont think.
5.) Networking code, umm, waste of space. People can buy a seperate book for that, or leave articles on CD-ROM.
Summary 1.) More coverage on PVS and collision detection
2.) More coverage on modern games and the techniques they use
3.) No references or crap on FlySDK, who cares? Leave it on CD-ROM
4.) More math, use extra space to discuss the various 3d topics in detail, and how about some stuff that 3d level editors need? More coverage on CSG, for example. And polygon tesselation, and maybe algorithms necessary to convert models to various formats.
(a) The books text is made up of (to a major extent) text and diagrams from Watts other books. As I mentioned, I like one of Watts other books but I don't appreciate paying for old information. I can appreciate that there are those that do not have the old texts and it would be necessary to some extent to have it included in this book...but how about some new color plates at some point? Some of these plates and text have now been used in three books!
(b) The additional information in the book that isn't based on the older books isn't anything particularly ground breaking. There is very little treatment of new games technologies, even in the field of graphics/rendering.
(c) After reading the texts about graphics programming that I mentioned in (a) we get to the game programming side of the book which unfortunately is the worst part of it. The collision detection part of the book is appalling and no where near the size or detail it should have been given the authors backgrounds. The same could be said of the Behavior and AI chapter at around 30 pages. This sort of overview hardly makes the book a bible on software technology.
(d) How did chapters 18 and 19 get into this book? This whole section covers '2D technology' but nothing presented here is anything that anyone has ever used in a game. It's possible someone might find something useful here, but also quite a rare chance and such chapters catering for the minority or non games programming reader are taking up pages that might have been better used for something else.
(e) The final section of the book is three chapters on 'software technology'. There are an interesting few pages at the start of this on multiplayer technology but it soon changes to a reference about the fly3D sdk.
(f) The layout/typesetting of the book is awful. This all started with Watts ghastly 'The Computer Image' and unfortunately was used in the last revision of '3D Computer Graphics' as well as this book. The early 90's versions of '3D Computer Graphics' had a perfect setting - why change?
(g) The flySDK is reasonable...but its not wholly up to date in terms of games graphics technology. With Watts knowledge I would expect it to be pushing the envelope and offering a guiding light for games programmers but sadly this is not the case.
The cover mentions this as 'volume 1' so I hope the next volume is much more along the lines of what this should be. I have mentioned about my high hopes for this book and hinted on the true genuis of the authors, but if anything this book has proved to me that non games programmers shouldn't attempt to write games programming books. I am sorry to have to say that but I honestly feel that the authors might wish to leave out the unnecessary and undetailed chapters and concentrate on updating their earlier books. I can see a potentially hot title '3D Computer Graphics for Games' based on an update of the earlier book, making considerations to non opengl based rendering systems and console graphics...as well as the definitive text on collision detection covering intersections and collision resolution.
(1) They provide a detailed explanation of computer graphic, even exceeding the needs of a game developer
(2) a powerful graphic engine. Look at the demos,they are impressive
(3) 12 tutorials to get familiar with it.
(4) All the needed facilities. Some other books do not even supply a utility to load a .3ds file format
(5) The foundations of A.I. ,collision detection etc
(6) They use OpenGL instead of Direct X The MS library seems to become a standard for professional games developers but,in my opinion ,they are a nightmare for an amateur
(7) Last , Vol 2 has been announced by July 2001. If Mr Watt and Mr Policarpo take note of the critics of the readers who rated this book , 1 or 2 stars, a reference book for our wonderful hobby will be, at last, available
First, this book does contain a lot of theory as well as practical information. It does assume a basic knowledge of calculus, linear algebra, and discrete mathematics--math that any graphics programmer (or any programmer for that matter) should have at least a basic understanding of. It also assumes a basic knowledge of computer graphics. Thus, if you are looking for a cut and paste guide to creating computer games and are not looking to actually understand how interactive 3D applications work, you should not buy this book. If you intend to learn the fundamentals necessary to become a professional game programmer, or serious hobbyist, you definitely should.
Second, although there are a few typos, I am sure that the "spelling errors" that have been cited are actually due to the fact that the book is written in European, not American, english. This means that, while probably 99% of the words are the same, subtle differences in spellings exist (such as colour instead of color and visualisation instead of visualization). This does not, however, detract from the readability of the book.
This an excellent book and, despite some of the negative reviews, it lived up to all of my expectations as a sound theoretical, as well as practical, introduction to 3D game programming.
