Topic: Core Image


  
  Developing with Core Image
When an Image Unit is loaded and configured with an image (or images), as well as any needed parameters that define the settings that the Image Unit can take, pixels are fetched from the input image by a sampler object that handles any needed coordinate transformation and scaling.
Since Image Units execute in near real-time, and only on the pixels that need to be processed, it is possible to keep the original state of the source images and reprocess the displayed pixels as needed.
And finally, Image Units defines a new way to share image processing capabilities between applications and paves the road for a marketplace of plug-ins that can be used by any image processing application on the system that supports Core Image.

 [No title]
Although Core Image is conceptually a chain, with the output one one Image Unit becoming the input for the next, a naive implementation of this design would be prohibitively slow.
The second clever aspect of Tiger's Core Image implementation is how it produces and runs the code that makes up the "effective Image Unit." Core Image includes a just-in-time (JIT) compiler that converts the implementation-agnostic "recipe" for the entire Image Unit chain into optimized code, targeting the fastest hardware available at the time of execution.
The standard Core Image demo shows a handful of Image Units being applied to a source image, each one executing instantly as it is applied.

 Solaris 2.5.1 man page: core(4)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
The operating system writes out a core image of a process when it is terminated due to the receipt of some signals.
The core image is called core and is written in the process's working directory (provided it can be; normal access controls apply).
The size of the core file created by a process may be controlled by the user (see getrlimit(2)).

 ICANN | Memorandum of Decision in Image Online Design, Inv. v. CORE Ass'n (22 June 2000)
CORE provides a directory of member entities that a prospective registrant may use to register its domain name, and has over 85 registrar members worldwide.
However, CORE's application for federal trademark was rejected by the examining attorney at the United States Patent and Trademark Office ("PTO") in the course of this litigation.
For example: if Image Online had tried to use.Web as the name of its database charting the habits of common arachnids, such a use would reasonably point to Plaintiff as the source of the database, The Court is certain that there are a number of services to which trademark rights in.web might attach.

Core Image is designed to leverage the processing abilities of certain types of graphics processor found on high-end video cards.
This gives enormous performance benefits because large image data sets need not be moved across the main memory bus, which is one place where real-time image processing can become bandwidth bound.
This means, though, that the movie requires Core Image, so it will not work on Windows, nor on versions of Mac OS X prior to Mac OS X 10.4, even with QuickTime 7 installed.

 Medical Imaging - Fostering Efficiencies and Savings: Image-Guided Core Needle Biopsy
This minimally invasive procedure uses ultrasound or mammography images to locate a suspicious lump or nodule in the breast.
One study found that a surgical biopsy – in which the tissue is removed through a surgical incision in the breast – costs two-and-a-half to three times more than the image-guided needle core biopsy ($698 vs. $243).
Equipment costs were twice as much, supplies a third higher, and provider time more than five times higher than the corresponding costs for the image-guided core needle biopsy.

 Core image handling | drupal.org   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
I think polluting the module namespace with a ton of image support files would be worse than the 20 or so lines to implement this "custom plugin" framework.
Any modules can then be built to use images, for instance the image.module which just becomes an image node type, and the flexinode image field type.
I was just talking with Music for America's graphic designer (http://www.musicforamerica.org/user/8) and she mentioned that the new site design which they are working on will want a lot of uploaded images to be scaled and cropped.
