Real-Time Graphics Rendering Engine reveals the software architec-ture of the modern real-time 3D graphics rendering engine and the relevant technologies based on the authors experience developing this high-performance， real-time system. The relevant knowledge about real-time graphics rendering such as the rendering pipeline，the visual appearance and shading and lighting models are also introduced. This book is intended to offer well-founded guidance for researchers and developers who are interested in building their own rendering engines.
