2. Computer representation of surfaces - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_representation_of...

   An open surface with u- and v-flow lines and Z-contours shown. In technical applications of 3D computer graphics such as computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing, surfaces are one way of representing objects. The other ways are wireframe (lines and curves) and solids.

3. Rendering (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

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

   Glossary of computer graphics; Graphics library – A software component that performs rendering and/or other graphics-related functions, usable by multiple applications, or an interface between a rendering component or graphics pipeline and the applications that use it (in the latter case called an API)

5. 3D rendering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_rendering

   Surface shading - how light spreads across a surface (mostly used in scanline rendering for real-time 3D rendering in video games) Reflection/scattering - how light interacts with a surface at a given point (mostly used in ray-traced renders for non-real-time photorealistic and artistic 3D rendering in both CGI still 3D images and CGI non ...

6. Painter's algorithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Painter's_algorithm

   A fractal landscape being rendered using the painter's algorithm on an Amiga. The painter's algorithm (also depth-sort algorithm and priority fill) is an algorithm for visible surface determination in 3D computer graphics that works on a polygon-by-polygon basis rather than a pixel-by-pixel, row by row, or area by area basis of other Hidden-Surface Removal algorithms.

7. Warnock algorithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warnock_algorithm

   The Warnock algorithm is a hidden surface algorithm invented by John Warnock that is typically used in the field of computer graphics. [1] It solves the problem of rendering a complicated image by recursive subdivision of a scene until areas are obtained that are trivial to compute.
