Please reconsider upvoting it back up if you downvoted it. It's a good question, and one often not explained in many references and articles. | |

They're ways of interpolating the normal across a surface. There is such a thing as the Phong lighting model, but that's distinct from Phong shading. "As far as I know both Ray Tracing and Global Illumination are just lighting models" These too are not lighting models. | |
