Homogeneous Coordinates and Matrix Representation Homogeneous Coordinates Homogenous coordinates utilize a mathematical trick to embed three-dimensional coordinates and transformations into a four-dimensional matrix format. As a result‚ inversions or combinations of linear transformations are simplified to inversion or multiplication of the corresponding matrices. Homogenous coordinates also make it possible to define perspective transformations. Homogenous coordinates allow each point

A bill of quantities (BOQ) is an itemized list of materials‚ parts‚ and labor (with their costs) required to construct‚ maintain‚ or repair a specific structure. It is a document used in tendering in the construction industry in which materials‚ parts‚ and labor (and their costs) are itemized. It also (ideally) details the terms and conditions of the construction or repair contract and itemizes all work to enable a contractor to price the work for which he or she is bidding.
