Abstract | Temporal coherence (TC), the correlation of contents between adjacent rendered frames, exists across a wide range of scenes and motion types in practical real-time rendering. By taking advantage of TC, we can save redundant computation and improve the performance of many rendering tasks significantly with only a marginal decrease in quality. This not only allows us to incorporate more computationally intensive shading effects to existing applications, but also offers exciting opportunities of extending high-end graphics applications to reach lower-spec consumer-level hardware. This course aims to introduce participants to the concepts of TC, and provide them the working practical and theoretical knowledge to exploit TC in a variety of shading tasks. It begins with an introduction of the general notion of TC in rendering, as well as an overview of the recent developments in this field. Then it focuses on a key data structure - the reverse reprojection cache, which is the foundation of many applications. The course proceeds with a number of extensions of the basic algorithm for assisting in multi-pass shading effects, shader antialiasing, casting shadows and global-illumination effects. Finally, several more general coherence topics beyond pixel reuse are introduced, including visibility culling optimization and object-space global-illumination approximations. For all the major techniques and applications covered, implementation and practical issues involved in development are addressed in detail. In general, we emphasize "know how" and the guidelines related to algorithm choices. After the course, participants are encouraged to find and utilize TC in their own applications and rapidly adapt existing algorithms to meet their requirements.

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
