Seminar - Computer Grafik und Visualisierung

J. Schneider, Prof. Dr. Westermann

Seminar - Computer Grafik und Visualisierung
Time, Place: Preliminary schedule: Do 14:00-15:30, MI 02.13.010
Begin: 19.04.2007
Prerequisites: none
Registration: register here

The seminar is anticipated to be held on 3./4. and 25./26. July 2007 in room 02.13.010.

Contents

The main purpose of this seminar is to introduce the basic ideas of computer graphics. This is done by means of analyzing certain steps in the rendering pipeline and their implementation in different graphics APIs and software toolkits.

To sucessfully participate in this seminar, the attendants will have to prepare a talk, which should last about 45 minutes. Supplementary, a short workout (2-4 pages) should be prepared. Your supervisor can give you hints how to get started, but during the preparation for the talks, independent recherche for further reading is required. For more details, please see Seminar FAQ (PDF).

ACM Digital Library

The TUM has an account at the ACM digital library which hosts some of the most important conferences on Computer Graphics. To access it, proceed as follows:
  • Configure your browser to use proxy.informatik.tu-muenchen.de at port 8080.
  • Read the three bullets below, then browse to ACM Digital Library.
  • Make sure you see "HeBIS: TU Muenchen" witten in the logo, and not "Technische Universitaet Muenchen".
  • Now you can search for papers, topics etc. They are hosted in pdf format.
  • It might be necessary to perform the above procedure from within the TU web.
