BSP

BSP (Binary Space Partitioning) is a computer graphics technique used to recursively subdivide a space into convex sets by hyperplanes, primarily for efficient rendering of 3D scenes. It organizes geometric data into a tree structure that enables fast visibility determination and collision detection, reducing computational overhead in real-time applications like video games and simulations.

Also known as: Binary Space Partitioning, BSP tree, bsp, Binary Partition, Space Partition Tree

🧊Why learn BSP?

Developers should learn BSP when working on 3D graphics engines, game development, or spatial data structures where efficient rendering and collision handling are critical. It is particularly useful for optimizing visibility culling in complex environments, such as indoor levels in first-person shooters, to improve performance by minimizing overdraw and unnecessary polygon processing.

Other Industrial Standards

A/B testing is a statistical method used to compare two versions of a product, feature, or content to determine which performs better based on user behavior and metrics. It involves randomly splitting users into groups (A and B) and exposing them to different variants, then analyzing the results to make data-driven decisions. This technique is widely used in web development, marketing, and product optimization to improve user experience and achieve business goals.

Acceptance Test Driven Development

Acceptance Test Driven Development (ATDD) is a collaborative software development methodology where acceptance criteria for a feature are defined as automated tests before development begins. It involves stakeholders, developers, and testers working together to create executable specifications that verify the software meets business requirements. This approach ensures that development efforts are aligned with user needs and reduces misunderstandings about feature expectations.

Agile is an iterative and incremental project management and software development methodology that emphasizes flexibility, collaboration, and customer feedback. It involves breaking work into small, manageable units called sprints, with regular reassessments and adaptations of plans. The goal is to deliver high-quality software quickly and efficiently while responding to changing requirements.

Agile is a project management and software development methodology that emphasizes iterative progress, collaboration, and flexibility. It involves breaking work into small, manageable increments called sprints, with frequent reassessment and adaptation of plans. Key principles include customer collaboration, responding to change, and delivering working software regularly.

Agile Development

Agile Development is an iterative and incremental approach to software development that emphasizes flexibility, collaboration, and customer feedback. It involves breaking projects into small, manageable units called sprints, with regular reassessments and adaptations of plans. Key principles include valuing individuals and interactions over processes and tools, and responding to change over following a rigid plan.

Agile Methodologies

Agile Methodologies are a set of iterative and incremental software development approaches that emphasize flexibility, collaboration, and customer feedback. They prioritize delivering working software in short cycles (sprints) and adapting to changing requirements, as opposed to traditional waterfall methods. Common frameworks under this umbrella include Scrum, Kanban, and Extreme Programming (XP).
