Editor's Notes
- With Windows 10, the entire application platform has converged… This benefits you and us as well IoT/Devices: From the exciting announcements a few weeks ago at BUILD with Windows 10 running on key IoT boards such as the Raspberry Pi 2, Windows 10 and the app platform spans all our device categories. Mobile: Familiar telephony PC: Desktop shell, including Start menu! Etc… We’re also committed to making sure existing games and apps work We’ve built the platform to help you accommodate for all these varying devices: Adaptive User Interfaces makes handling multiple screen sizes and resolutions natural and intuitive As mentioned before, the platform provides an abstraction layer for a wide variety of input mechanisms The SDK, Tools and Services are shared across all platforms Not only is there a converged store but also single Dev Center to streamline the publishing process Your current games will also run!

- How we think about the Store goes beyond just one place to buy apps. Global Coverage: Windows Store supported in 242 markets around the world. Windows Store Apps available in 102 languages. Enhanced Discovery: Windows 10 is designed to help users discover apps, games and other store content based on a new customer engagement system (AIM) which combines user insight and outreach vehicles to match customers with content they want. Personalized recommendations based on machine learning of user interests and preferences surfaced in the Store and Cortana Segment-based recommendations based on custom outreach campaigns using the new AIM system which surfaces offers and content precisely to high prospect customer segments Store affiliate program: New incentives for affiliates (app or web) to drive traffic and app installations Business distribution: And we’re not just doing this for consumers, this will also be for commercial and academic customers. With Windows 10, every company that uses Windows can purchase and distribute Windows apps
- http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ff476882(v=vs.85).aspx You can use the Direct3D 11API to configure all of the stages. Stages that feature common shader cores (the rounded rectangular blocks) are programmable by using the HLSL programming language. As you will see, this makes the pipeline extremely flexible and adaptable. The following list specifies the purpose of each of the stages. Input-Assembler Stage - The input-assembler stage supplies data (triangles, lines and points) to the pipeline. Vertex-Shader Stage - The vertex-shader stage processes vertices, typically performing operations such as transformations, skinning, and lighting. A vertex shader always takes a single input vertex and produces a single output vertex. Geometry-Shader Stage - The geometry-shader stage processes entire primitives. Its input is a full primitive (which is three vertices for a triangle, two vertices for a line, or a single vertex for a point). In addition, each primitive can also include the vertex data for any edge-adjacent primitives. This could include at most an additional three vertices for a triangle or an additional two vertices for a line. The geometry shader also supports limited geometry amplification and de-amplification. Given an input primitive, the geometry shader can discard the primitive, or emit one or more new primitives. Stream-Output Stage - The stream-output stage streams primitive data from the pipeline to memory on its way to the rasterizer. Data can be streamed out and/or passed into the rasterizer. Data streamed out to memory can be recirculated back into the pipeline as input data or read-back from the CPU. Rasterizer Stage - The rasterizer clips primitives, prepares primitives for the pixel shader, and determines how to invoke pixel shaders. Pixel-Shader Stage - The pixel-shader stage receives interpolated data for a primitive and generates per-pixel data such as color. Output-Merger Stage - The output-merger stage combines various types of output data (pixel shader values, depth and stencil information) with the contents of the render target and depth/stencil buffers to generate the final pipeline result. Hull-shader, tessellator, and domain-shader stages, which comprise the tessellation stages - The tessellation stages convert higher-order surfaces to triangles for rendering within the Direct3D 11 pipeline. The Direct3D 11 programmable pipeline is also designed for providing high-speed computing tasks. A compute shader expands Direct3D 11 beyond graphics to support general purpose GPU computing.
- I am sure some of you are thinking: One API, across a myriad of devices with very different hardware characteristics.. It is not doable… You are right-on… How Direct3D takes care of this is through Feature levels…
- DirectX 12 is the graphics technology in Windows that will deliver even more impressive visuals and gaming performance. Increased Performance and CPU Power reductions DirectX 12 gives game developers the ability to manage CPU and GPU resources directly. You’ll be able to reduce CPU overhead by over 50% while effectively scaling across all CPU cores, leading to a massive increase in the number of objects in a scene. DirectX 12 can also reduce processor power consumption up to 50%, ensuring longer battery life for gaming on the go without sacrificing performance. Powerful, console-like API surface Over 100 development studios engaged have been engaged with Early Access of DirectX 12. With support from major engines like Unity and Unreal Engine 4 from Epic, we are on pace for the most rapid game adoption of a new version of DirectX in 15 years. Xbox One developers are familiar with DX12 as they have been using a modified version of DirectX that is very similar to DX12. Work with your DAMs to get access to DX12 libraries. Exclusive to Windows 10 devices DX12 will work across all the W10 devices from phones and tablets, to laptops and desktops, and Xbox One.

- Windows 10 lays the foundation on which Microsoft can build one ecosystem One operating system, built upon one common core, across all Windows devices One developer platform on which Windows experiences are built, 1st party and 3rd party alike One distribution channel for consumers and developers – providing a single, safe channel for doing commerce One update process, building upon our success on Xbox and Windows Update Service, delivering continuous improvement <click> And, of course, the Windows promise of investment protection continues to endure. Windows 10 runs apps and applications designed to run on prior versions of the operating system
