  2. Frontend and backend - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontend_and_Backend

    In software development, frontend refers to the presentation layer that users interact with, while backend involves the data management and processing behind the scenes. In the client–server model, the client is usually considered the frontend, handling user-facing tasks, and the server is the backend, managing data and logic.

  3. Cost estimation in software engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_estimation_in...

    Cost estimation in software engineering is typically concerned with the financial spend on the effort to develop and test the software, this can also include requirements review, maintenance, training, managing and buying extra equipment, servers and software. Many methods have been developed for estimating software costs for a given project.

  4. Software development effort estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_development...

    Formal estimation model: The quantification step is based on mechanical processes, e.g., the use of a formula derived from historical data. Combination-based estimation: The quantification step is based on a judgmental and mechanical combination of estimates from different sources. Below are examples of estimation approaches within each category.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cairo_(graphics)

    Gecko 1.9, [19] the release of Gecko that serves as the basis of Firefox 3, uses Cairo as the graphics back-end for rendering both web page content and the user interface (or "chrome"). The WebKit framework uses Cairo for all rendering in the GTK and EFL ports. Support has also been added for SVG and <canvas> content using Cairo. [citation needed]

  6. Motion interpolation (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

    Towards the end of the transition, the interpolation would be more influenced by the sad walking motion until the figure simply walks the sad walking motion. [1] A transition between two types of motions (e.g., a walking motion and a running motion) involves the interpolation of velocities. This ensures a smooth transition.

  8. Rendering equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendering_equation

    The rendering equation describes the total amount of light emitted from a point x along a particular viewing direction, given a function for incoming light and a BRDF.. In computer graphics, the rendering equation is an integral equation in which the equilibrium radiance leaving a point is given as the sum of emitted plus reflected radiance under a geometrical optics approximation.

  9. Hidden-surface determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden-surface_determination

    In 3D computer graphics, hidden-surface determination (also known as shown-surface determination, hidden-surface removal (HSR), occlusion culling (OC) or visible-surface determination (VSD)) is the process of identifying what surfaces and parts of surfaces can be seen from a particular viewing angle.
