Data-Oriented Design - Now and In the Future
In the past year or two, data-oriented design (shifting the focus of
programming from objects to the data itself and how it's written and
read) has gained significant ground in the game development industry.
The reason: It works, particularly for high-performance games.
In this Intel-sponsored technical column originally published in Game
Developer magazine, Noel Llopis takes an honest look at data-oriented
design and makes the case for how it can significantly improve
performance. Included topics are data-oriented design application,
breaking up and batching code, and conditional execution.
Read it today!
