    These may be generated manually in bare metal programming, or managed by low level rendering APIs, or handled internally by high level rendering APIs. Command list A group of rendering commands ready for submission to a graphics processing unit, see also Command buffer. Compute API An API for efficiently processing large amounts of data. [9 ...

  3. Software rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_rendering

    Software rendering is the process of generating an image from a model by means of computer software. In the context of computer graphics rendering, software rendering refers to a rendering process that is not dependent upon graphics hardware ASICs, such as a graphics card. The rendering takes place entirely in the CPU. Rendering everything with ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back-face_culling

    Back-face culling may also be applied to other problems. For example, in wire-frame rendering, back-face culling can be used to partially address the problem of hidden-line removal, but only for closed convex geometry. Back-face culling can also be applied to flat surfaces other than polygons, for example disks, which have a constant normal ...

    The term "rendering" may be by analogy with an "artist's rendering" of a scene. Although the technical details of rendering methods vary, the general challenges to overcome in producing a 2D image from a 3D representation stored in a scene file are outlined as the graphics pipeline along a rendering device, such as a GPU. A GPU is a device able ...

  7. Lazy loading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_loading

    Lazy loading (also known as asynchronous loading) is a technique used in computer programming, especially web design and web development, to defer initialization of an object until it is needed. It can contribute to efficiency in the program's operation if properly and appropriately used.

  8. Agnostic (data) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agnostic_(data)

    There are, however, a few problems introduced when attempting to make a device or program data agnostic. Since only one piece of code is being used for CRUD operations (regardless of the type of concept), there is a single point of failure. If that code breaks down, the whole system is broken.

  9. Rendering (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendering_(computer_graphics)

    The word "rendering" (in one of its senses) originally meant the task performed by an artist when depicting a real or imaginary thing (the finished artwork is also called a "rendering"). Today, to "render" commonly means to generate an image or video from a precise description (often created by an artist) using a computer program. [1] [2] [3] [4]
