Source Code
Here is the code to compile and build libpci.a, which is a
library of the functions in the text. It needs a Sun workstation running
Solaris 2.4 or later.
The code has been tested and compiled only on Sun workstations with Solaris 2.4 and later.
To build it, you need a working directory <dir>
copy the C files into<dir>
copy the header file into<dir>/include
setenv PCIHOMEto<dir>
cd <dir>
make

DESCRIPTION
Today, widespread availability of powerful desktop computers with color display capabilities has brought computer imaging within practical reach of the end user. However, up to now, both the users and implementors of computer imaging products users have faced a scarcity of useful literature on its practice. High Performance Computer Imagining bridges the gap between theory and practice of computer imaging. For product developers, it addresses all the unique problems that arise when designing imaging software products. For end users, it clarifies the subtleties and simplifies complexities that can lead to better performance by these products.
What's inside:
- Current, commonly-used computer imaging algorithms and hardware
- A software engineering framework for imaging software development
- Numerous C programming examples
- Industry standard imaging and video compression algorithms
- Design methodology for high-performance imaging products
- Performance evaluation methods
- A review of current hardware imaging devices and trends
- Modern color imaging techniques
- Java and its implications for imaging
- Techniques to evaluate current imaging software and hardware products
