Riassunto

Superblack, supercase, supercomputer, supersonic, superimpose, superquadric (including superellipsoid), superred (and the supergreen and superblue superprimaries), supersampling, supershift, superuser, Super VGA, Super VHS, and superwhite are just a few of the words that make up the language of computer graphics. "The Dictionary of Computer Graphics Technology and Applications" guides novices and specialists through the terminology surrounding one of the major growth areas in computers. This dictionary covers the software, hardware, and applications of computer graphics. It contains hundreds of terms, aiding specialists with the jargon of unfamiliar applications areas and allied technologies. Definitions are clear and concise, with special attention given to alternate spellings and meanings. Acronyms are decoded, and pronunciation of the seemingly unpronounceable is given, from NAPLPS (nap-lips) to WYSIWYG (whizzy-wig).
