Vulkan is the next generation graphics API released by the Khronos group. It is expected to be the successor to OpenGL and OpenGL ES, which it shares some similarities with such as its cross-platform capabilities, programmed pipeline stages, or nomenclature. Vulkan is a low-level API that gives developers much more control over the hardware, but also adds new responsibilities such as explicit memory and resources management. With it, though, Vulkan is expected to be much faster.This book is your guide to understanding Vulkan through a series of recipes. We start off by teaching you how to create instances in Vulkan and choose the device on which operations will be performed. You will then explore more complex topics such as command buffers, resources and memory management, pipelines, GLSL shaders, render passes, and more. Gradually, the book moves on to teach you advanced rendering techniques, how to draw 3D scenes, and how to improve the performance of your applications.By the end of the book, you will be familiar with the latest advanced techniques implemented with the Vulkan API, which can be used on a wide range of platforms.

W tym szaleństwie jest metoda. Powieść o zarządzaniu projektami
Marcin Żmigrodzki
Literatura piękna i praktyczna równocześnie Jeśli chcesz, albo musisz, nauczyć się zarządzania projektami, ale nie przepadasz za suchym językiem poradników biznesowych - to książka dla Ciebie! Oto Twój podręcznik skutecznego rozwoju firmy za pomocą projektów, Twoja lektura do poduszki i wreszcie - Twoja ulubiona powieść. Na jej kartach opisano historię firmy Project Inc., czyli średniej wielkości przedsiębiorstwa z branży informatycznej, od lat działającego gdzieś w Europie. Do niedawna wiodło mu się całkiem nieźle, ale ostatnio skuteczny mechanizm biznesowy zaczął się psuć. Rośnie presja konkurencji, a marże spadają. Prezes Project Inc. dostrzega problem, jednak pełni samozadowolenia pracownicy nie przyjmują do wiadomości konieczności zmian. Na scenę wkracza więc konsultant... Tego, co było dalej, dowiesz się z tej książki - a przy okazji poznasz trudną sztukę zarządzania projektami. Opanujesz oczywiście służące temu celowi techniki i metody, ale będzie to dopiero początek. Pierwszy krok. Jak bowiem zauważa autor, praktyk z wieloletnim doświadczeniem, głównym problemem większości firm jest brak umiejętności wdrażania owych technik i metod oraz koncentrowania się na zmianie w perspektywie długofalowej. Tymczasem doskonalenie zarządzania projektami to droga zaplanowana na kilka lat. Niestety, na podróżujących nią czyhają tysiące pułapek w postaci bodźców, które przekierowują uwagę na inne tory. Trzeba nauczyć się przed tym bronić... Mamy nadzieję, że literacka forma opowieści o firmie Project Inc. przypadnie Ci do gustu. Uzmysłowi istnienie dobrych praktyk projektowych, uczuli Cię na typowe błędy i pozwoli uniknąć wynikających z nich zagrożeń.
