What is Rendering?


You would have come across this word many times but know why the meaning and the use of rendering in the computer. If answer No, then this blog is for you.


Rendering just means “To Draw”.

In computer point of view, its process in which code data is processed by the computer processor or the graphic card and converted into image which can be display on the screen.

In technical term :Rendering or image synthesis is the automatic process of generating a photo realistic or non-photo realistic image from a 2D or 3D model by means of computer programs.

Rendering technique are of two type:
1.Real-Time Rendering
2. Pre-Rendering

1.Real-Time Rending: You would have experience this rendering process if you have played a high graphic game which require graphic processing unit. In this process the rendering is done on the go, where image must be created at rapid pace. Because user interaction is high in such environment, real time image creation is required.

2. Pre-Rendering: This technique is used where we are not concern about the speed. Image calculation are performed by multi core central processing unit instead of dedicated graphic card. This rendering is done is animation and visual effect.

Whatever a computer displays on the screen is rendered in real time: The computer is computing all the coded data fast enough to display and update images with no perceivable lag. However, the computer can only render so much content complexity at once to continue the real-time rendering perception. The term rendering is used in video editing and processing to describe the computer taking extra time to render graphics and generate a full-motion-video playback version that works in real time.

Why is GPU used in rendering?


Processor is design to handle huge task very quickly one at a time. And rendering is processor in which multiple small task to be done. Here come the part of GPU who can handle small task simultaneously because GPU are design to handle thousand of small task which make it better suit for rendering.

TCP Segment

A TCP segment is made up of a TCP header and a data section. Source Port :  A source port is a high numbered port chosen from a special section of ports known as ephemeral ports. A source port is needed so that when the web server replies, the computer making the original request can send this data to the program that was actually requesting it. It is in this way that when it web server responds to your requests to view a web page that this response gets received by your web browser and not your word processor. Destination Port : port on which the client in request the data( The destination port is the port of the service the traffic is intended for ) Sequence Number :This is a 32-bit number that's used to keep track of where in a sequence of TCP segments this one is expected to be.There are limits to the total size of what we send across the wire. In Ethernet frame, it's usually limited in size to 1,518 bytes, but we usually need to send way more data than that. At the transp...

Troubleshooting and debugging

Troubleshooting is the process of identifying, analyzing, and solving problems.  Debugging is the process of identifying, analyzing, and removing bugs in a system. We sometimes use troubleshooting and debugging interchangeably.  But generally, we say troubleshooting when we're fixing problems in the system running the application, and debugging when we're fixing the bugs in the actual code of the application. Debuggers let us follow the code line by line, inspect changes in variable assignments, interrupt the program when a specific condition is met, and more. System calls are the calls that the programs running on our computer make to the running kernel.   A reproduction case is a way to verify if the problem is present or not. Where to check for log file in OS? On Linux , you'd read system logs like /var/log/syslog and user-specific logs like the .xsession-errors file located in the user's home directory. On MacOs , on top of the system logs, you'd go through...
