-- Developers write Windows applications using the API of their choice.
-- The API translates higher level applicati
ons calls into lower level primitives (e.g., triangles and quadrilaterals).
-- The 3-D DDI (and the device driver) takes the primitives and other information and accesses the hardware to perform the required drawing.
