Digital Space: Designing Virtual Environments

Create realistic 3D environments with ease. Harness the latest computer-generated 3D imaging techniques to design exciting virtual environments. Peter Weishar’s Digital Space shows you how to solve design problems with today’s easy-to-use software…apply the traditional methods of scenic designers, painters, and architects to create 3D images…and optimize all aspects of your 3D models. packed with nearly 200 illustrations, this expert design tool enables you to: create models, set designs, lighting, textures, interiors and exteriors, perspective and trompe l’oeils; apply such digital techniques as fly-throughs, texture-mapping, ray tracing and radiosity; take advantage of tips and shortcuts for faster execution, reduced file size and simulations; and much more!

Modelling Autonomic Communication Environments: 5th IEEE International Workshop, MACE 2010, Niagara Falls, Canada, October 28, 2010, Proceedings … Networks and Telecommunications)

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th IEEE International Workshop on Modelling Autonomic Communications Environments, MACE 2010, held in Niagara Falls, Canada, in October 2010, as part of the 6th International Conference on Network and Service Management, CNSM 2010. The 10 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 17 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on autonomics in home area networks and multimedia; ontologies, experience, adaptive systems and federation; and modeling for virtualized infrastructure.
