ALITE - AN ENGINEERING TOOL FOR AUTOMATIC CHIP DESIGN
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)To meet the variety of layout challenges raised by developing VLSI technology, a new Autolayout system has been developed. This flexible tool provides automated or interactive layout of both 'mass-production' and custom ... -
ANALYSIS OF THE DESIGN PROCESS AS BASIS FOR THE DEFINITION OF CAD-FUNCTIONS DISTRIBUTED ON HIERARCHICAL NETWORKS
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)It seems to be no question any more, that intelligent graphics work stations will be integrated as terminals into networks, especially because of the process in hardware and network development. But we do not know yet, ... -
THE APPLICATION OF DATA COMPRESSION TECHNIQUES TO COMPUTER GRAPHICS
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)The decreasing cost of semiconductor storage combined with inherently low cost of colour television monitors has led to the possibility of an economical interactive graphics terminal. However, although the cost of the frame ... -
ATTRIBUTE HANDLING IN GKS
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)Following an intensive international review, GKS was adopted by ISO as a Draft Proposal in October 1981, GKS, Graphical Kernal System, is a 2-D device independent graphics system. One of the features, which distinguishes ... -
A BIFOCAL DISPLAY TECHNIQUE FOR DATA PRESENTATION
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)A technique for presenting data on a graphics display, while avoiding the inherent windowing problem of conventional v.d.u's is proposed. This technique is centered on the concept of spatial information management. Design ... -
CGM-CONCEPTS AND THEIR REALIZATION
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)A discussion of special design concepts for CGM, the Berlin implementation of GKS and their realizations on various computers. -
CHITRA - A LOW COST 2-D GRAPHICS PACKAGE FOR THE DESIGN OF DISCRETE SYSTEMS
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)A general purpose 2-D graphics package termed CHITRA has been developed, to aid the design of discrete systems. CHITRA permits the rapid interactive description and design of multiterminal subsystems and links for their ... -
COMPUTER GRAPHICS FOR REGIONAL PLANNING: MONITORING WOODLAND RESOURCES BY A LAND INFORMATION SYSTEM
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)To satisfy the cartographic requirement for planning at a regional scale the Csi-Piemonte has developed a system for computer assisted production of thematic maps. The activity of the Csi-Piemonte is directed at the ... -
COMPUTER GRAPHICS FOR THE REMOTE-SENSING OF THE OCEAN SURFACE BY A HIGH-RESOLUTION RADAR
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)A high-resolution microwave radar has the ability to resolve the ocean surface large-scale gravity waves or swell and to reveal their various properties (wavelength, velocity and period). Computer analysis and graphics ... -
COMPUTER GRAPHICS IN INTERACTIVE DISCRETE-EVENT SIMULATION
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)The use of computer graphics in the digital simulation of continuous and discrete-event systems has been repeatedly shown to confer many benefits. What is less common is the use of computer graphics to assist the user in ... -
A COMPUTER GRAPHICS PACKAGE FOR TEACHING CRYSTAL MORPHOLOGY
(The Eurographics Association, 1982) -
COMPUTER REPRESENTATION OF DEAF SIGN LANGUAGE
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)A compact system for recording and transmitting messages in Sign will help to alleviate the disadvantages suffered by profoundly deaf children and support an improved cultural environment for deaf adults. This paper proposes ... -
COMPUTER-AIDED DESIGN SYSTEM FOR THREE-DIMENSIONAL SHAPE PLANE FIGURES SHOE MAKING APPLICATION
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)"POK" is provided, through a purposely designed measuring appliance, for digitizing (in cylindrical coordinates) skew three-dimensional patterns in an automatic way as well as for carrying out an interactive 2D processing ... -
THE EFFECTIVENESS OF HIGH-LEVEL GRAPHICAL LANGUAGES IN DEALING WITH VARIOUS GRAPHICAL DOMAINS
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)There are many domains in which graphical programming languages can be applied. Use of a particular graphical programing language will be limited if the domains in which it can be applied are restricted. High-level graphical ... -
A FAST ALGORITHM FOR COLOUR REGION SEGMENTATION
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)An algorithm is described which analyses colour scenes in terms of regions. These regions are defined to have the same 'colour'. In this context the colour of a region is determined by its position in the CIE chromaticity ... -
GENERATING AND PRINTING OF HIGH QUALITY DOCUMENTS IN A DISTRIBUTED OFFICE AUTOMATION NETWORK ENVIRONMENT
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)This paper analyses the process of creating a printed document, which includes text processing, formatting and printing. Corresponding file formats, soft-copy generation algorithms as well as requirements of high quality ... -
GKS in C
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)A binding of GKS, the draft ISO standard for 2D graphics software, to the programming language C is presented, together with the principles underlying its design. The binding is compared with the binding to FORTRAN. An ... -
GRAPH: An Interactive Program based on the Graphical Kernel System
(The Eurographics Association, 1982) -
GRAPHIC DISPLAYS IN THE COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN OF LIFT SYSTEMS
(The Eurographics Association, 1982)The sizing of lift systems to meet passenger demands is normally carried out in a quantitative way by calculation. Nothing is done to determine the quality of service provided. This paper describes how a computer aided ... -
