Synopsis
Master Metal: The Next-Generation Graphics and GPU Programming Platform for Apple Developers
Metal enables Apple developers to maximize performance in demanding tasks like 3D graphics, games, scientific programming, visualization, and GPU-accelerated machine learning. Metal® Programming Guide is the authoritative, practical guide to Metal for all iOS programmers who are interested in graphics programming but don’t know where to start.
Pioneering Apple developer Janie Clayton covers everything from basic draw calls to advanced parallel computing, combining easy-to-understand conceptual explanations with well-tested Swift 4/Xcode 9 sample code (available for download at GitHub).
Clayton introduces the essential Metal, graphics, and math concepts every graphics programmer needs to know. She also discusses key graphics-specific libraries, concepts, and Metal Classes, presenting techniques and examples you’ll find valuable for both graphics and data processing. Clayton also provides coverage of the Metal Compute Pipeline, demonstrating practical GPU programming applications ranging from image processing to neural networking.
- Quickly get a basic Metal project running
- Work with Metal resources and memory management
- Learn how shaders are compiled and accessed by the CPU
- Program both 2D and 3D graphics with Metal

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Metal enables Apple iOS and macOS platform developers to maximize performance in demanding tasks like 3D graphics, games, scientific programming, visualization, and now GPU-accelerated machine learning. Apple's Swift + Metal combination runs faster than nearly any other language used in these areas. Now, there's an authoritative and 100% practical guide to making the most of Metal. Pioneering Apple developer Janie Clayton covers everything from simple draw calls to advanced parallel computing, teaching through hands-on projects and industry-realistic code samples. She covers a wide array of applications, from 2D and 3D graphics to neural networking. Clayton offers a uniquely valuable perspective on high-performance data-parallel programming with Metal -- a topic that has been woefully underserved by earlier resources. She also offers expert guidance on Metal performance and debugging, helping you capture every iota of performance the Metal API and shader language can offer. 352 pp. Englisch.
