  2. Hidden-line removal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden-line_removal

    The hidden-line algorithm uses n 2 exclusive read, exclusive write (EREW) PRAM processors. The EREW model is the PRAM variant closest to real machines. The hidden-line algorithm does O(n 2 log n) work, which is the upper bound for the best sequential algorithms used in practice. Cook, Dwork and Reischuk gave an Ω(log n) lower bound for finding ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden_line

    Hidden lines are particularly useful when viewing an object from an angle where the visible only lines do not have much information. In a computer drawing application the option may be referred to a wire frame with hidden edges. [6] The hidden edges would be dashed lines. A wire-frame image using hidden-line removal

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    Here is an example of an engineering drawing (an isometric view of the same object is shown above). The different line types are colored for clarity. Black = object line and hatching; Red = hidden line; Blue = center line of piece or opening; Magenta = phantom line or cutting plane line

  5. Hidden-surface determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden-surface_determination

    Hidden-surface determination is a process by which surfaces that should not be visible to the user (for example, because they lie behind opaque objects such as walls) are prevented from being rendered. Despite advances in hardware capability, there is still a need for advanced rendering algorithms. The responsibility of a rendering engine is to ...

Class, for example, "paint per spec XYZ revision C type 1 class 2" may be abbreviated as "paint per spec XYZ REV C TY 1 CL 2" or even in some cases "paint per spec XYZ-C-1-2". (The latter practice is not uncommon but is cryptic for workers with minimal training and experience. The first two ...

  8. Blueprint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blueprint

    A blueprint is a reproduction of a technical drawing or engineering drawing using a contact print process on light-sensitive sheets introduced by Sir John Herschel in 1842. [1] The process allowed rapid and accurate production of an unlimited number of copies.

  9. Whiteprint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whiteprint

    Whiteprinting replaced the blueprint process for reproducing architectural and engineering drawings because the process was simpler and involved fewer toxic chemicals. A blue-line print is not permanent and will fade if exposed to light for weeks or months, but a drawing print that lasts only a few months is sufficient for many purposes.
