Bar-Hebraeus identified Ahasuerus explicitly as Artaxerxes II ; however, the names are not necessarily equivalent: Hebrew has a form of the name Artaxerxes distinct from Ahasuerus, and a direct Greek rendering of Ahasuerus is used by both Josephus and the Septuagint for occurrences of the name outside the Book of Esther.

Instead, the Hebrew name Ahasuerus accords with an inscription of the time that notes that Artaxerxes II was named also Arshu, understood as a shortening of Achshiyarshu the Babylonian rendering of the Persian Khshayarsha ( Xerxes ), through which the Hebrew Achashverosh ( Ahasuerus ) is derived.

A notable example of this is the way OpenGL treats the video card of a computer as a server, with the actual application making rendering requests to it.

The data contained in the scene file is then passed to a rendering program to be processed and output to a digital image or raster graphics image file.

A GPU is a purpose-built device able to assist a CPU in performing complex rendering calculations.

If a scene is to look relatively realistic and predictable under virtual lighting, the rendering software should solve the rendering equation.

The rendering equation doesn't account for all lighting phenomena, but is a general lighting model for computer-generated imagery.

Pre-rendering is a computationally intensive process that is typically used for movie creation, while real-time rendering is often done for 3D video games which rely on the use of graphics cards with 3D hardware accelerators.

When the pre-image ( a wireframe sketch usually ) is complete, rendering is used, which adds in bitmap textures or procedural textures, lights, bump mapping and relative position to other objects.

In summer in particular this road can become very congested rendering the journey between the bridge and South Hayling ( the most populated area ) anything from 30 minutes to an hour.

Artist's rendering of the gravity anomaly map of the Chicxulub Crater area.

The immensely increased surface area can absorb virtually all the light that falls on it thus rendering it deep black.

By extension, " Fog of War " is also used to describe the limited view distance of many first person shooters, where unlimited view is considered either bad for gameplay or, more often, because of technical limitations, in that a Fog of War allows for the rendering of a smaller part of the game area.

Alternatively, George R. Stewart asserts that it is, " probably a French rendering of Deutsch, the name by which the German colonists of the area would have named their stream.

A combination of the pixels making up an image color formation scheme will compose details of an image, as is distinct from the commonly used points, lines, and polygon area location symbols of scalable vector graphics as the basis of the vector model of area attribute rendering.

Aerial photos are one commonly used form of raster data, with one primary purpose in mind: to display a detailed image on a map area, or for the purposes of rendering its identifiable objects by digitization.

The results of this expedition corrected an error in Zebulon Pike's 1805 map, which placed the mouth of the Crow Wing River too far to the west, rendering all maps of this area inaccurate.

A related area to VSD is culling, which usually happens before VSD in a rendering pipeline.

The creation of Appleton Dock and Swanston Dock in an area west of the Moonee Ponds Creek, now known as West Melbourne, closer to the mouth of the Yarra, became the focus of container shipping, effectively rendering redundant a vast amount of vacant inner-city land to the immediate west of Melbourne's CBD.

Another area of concern is that the scene graph was hidden from view, and considerable improvements in rendering performance can be made by carefully “ culling ” the graph to remove those objects that are not in view.

In fact, if the entirety of Tallaght and its environs were taken into account, then the population would be greater than that of Galway, rendering Tallaght the third largest area of population in the state after Dublin Cork and Limerick.

The relatively large glass area also led to the car carrying an above average proportion of its weight above waist height, however, rendering a wide track particularly important in order to ensure lateral stability.

Ultimately, after a mass battle against the Titans wears him down, Cyborg is able to gain the upper-hand by using a device to drain the light out of the area, rendering Light powerless.

In computer graphics, the guard band is a virtual area of the screen bordering the real screen to which any rendering is ignored, used to simplify clipping.

His arm is mounted with launchers ( mounted under his wings in jet mode ), which can launch two types of weaponry — cluster bombs, each of which can level an area, and his signature weapon, the null ray, which can disrupt the flow of electricity in any circuitry it hits for brief periods, effectively rendering any electronic device or machine ( including Transformers ) temporarily inoperable.
