Project Time Line

Week 1 - 3

• Received project
• Got stuck in the mud
• Climbed out of the mud
• Began simple VB Coding in dealing with images

Week 4

• Research & learn Bresenham Algorithm (line drawing in "device space")
• Research file formats of .bmp and .jpeg
• VB Coding in dealing with image manipulating

Week 5

• Research smooth Bresenham image scaling
• Research about MIP-mapping
• VB Coding in dealing with .bmp and .jpeg files

Week 6

• Search for other image scaling algorithms/programs
• Bring together Bresenham algorithm and image scaling
• Begin VB Coding of image scaling algorithm - .bmp files

Week 7

• Finish up search for other scaling algorithms
• Begin searching for programs/code to time duration and "score" quality of scaled image
• Continue VB Coding of image scaling - .bmp files, .jpeg files

Week 8

• Finish up search for quality/timing code/programs
• Incorporate other scaling images found
• Continue VB Coding of impage scaling - .bmp files, .jpeg files, MIP-mapping

Week 9

• Familarize self with qality/timing programs/code
• Finish up other Coding needs
• Begin debugging & test runs

Week 10

• Continue debuggin & testing
• Start documentation
• Start collecting actual data - image scaling quality & time

Week 11

• Finish up any debugging/testing/documenting
• Bring together presentation
• Fine tune VB Code - user interface

Week 12

• Finish up presentation
• Make a user manual?
• Tie up loose ends
• Practice presentation

Week 13

• Project presentation

Week 14
