What is a Scene-Graph

A scene-graph is a tree structure that arranges the elements of a scene into a logical representation. The actual implementation of a scene-graph varies as they are typically designed to suit a particular need. The scene-graph presented here allows elements to be placed in a 'world', manipulated, and displayed with minimal effort. Additionally, view frustum culling is performed.

This article is intended for those familiar with C# and XNA. A basic understanding of 3D graphics is also assumed.
