Computer Graphics,

Display computers Systems: vector and pixel displaying system. Basic computer graphics techniques. Graphical software. The use of API(s) for computer graphics. Color models, coordinates homogeneous, transformation, rotation, and clipping. Drawing lines, curves, and surfaces Algorithms. Representation of objects through polygons. Computer graphical user interfaces Design (GUI).

This Java based graphics text introduces advanced graphic features to a student audience mostly trained in the Java language. Its accessible approach and in-depth coverage features the high-level Java 2D and Java 3D APIs-offering an elegant and easy-to-understand presentation of 2D and 3D graphics without compromising the fundamentals of the subject.

Lectures

Tutorials

Projects

Instructor will teach the topics of the course emphasizing on the course related learning objectives through three fifty minutes lecture (or two 80 minutes lecture) meetings per week. Lectures will, in most cases, have a mix of formal lecturing and active learning.

During the tutorials (one 80 minutes meeting per week), the instructor will solve example problems related to the recently introduced topic. The instructor will also discuss with the students the problems they faced while trying to solve the assigned homework problems. Some of the tutorials are devoted for training the students on software packages, Java language and tools needed in the course.

A number of projects are assigned throughout the semester. The projects involve topics that require the use of provided Java compiler, software tools, and the implementation of theoretically studied issues. Students are grouped in teams, each of 4 students. Each team should submit report and give a presentation of their work.
