    • SAMMIE-3-D GRAPHICS FOR HUMAN FACTORS APPLICATIONS 

      Kingsley, Eliot C. (The Eurographics Association, 1982)
      In the last five years there has become available a wide range of computer aided three dimensional modelling systems, but only one of these has been specifically developed for evaluating human factors aspects of designs, ...

    • THE EFFECTIVENESS OF HIGH-LEVEL GRAPHICAL LANGUAGES IN DEALING WITH VARIOUS GRAPHICAL DOMAINS 

      Ross, R.; Schrack, G. (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 ...

    • GKS in C 

      Rosenthal, David S. H.; Hagen, Paul fen (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 ...

    • A METHODOLOGY FOR POPULATING DEFAULT COLOR MAPS 

      Straayer, David H. (The Eurographics Association, 1982)
      A standard for using colors in computer graphics systems is proposed. A key aspect of this proposed standard is to allow two different levels of access to colors. At the first level, colors are selected from a standard ...

    • A COMPUTER GRAPHICS PACKAGE FOR TEACHING CRYSTAL MORPHOLOGY 

      Angell, Ian O.; Moore, Moreton (The Eurographics Association, 1982)

    • GRAPHIC DISPLAYS IN THE COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN OF LIFT SYSTEMS 

      Barney, G.C. (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 ...

    • CGM-CONCEPTS AND THEIR REALIZATION 

      Buhtz, Rainer (The Eurographics Association, 1982)
      A discussion of special design concepts for CGM, the Berlin implementation of GKS and their realizations on various computers.

    • COMPUTER REPRESENTATION OF DEAF SIGN LANGUAGE 

      Harrison, R. (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 ...

    • VISTA VISUAL IMPACT SIMULATION TECHNICAL AID 

      Stearn, Donald D (The Eurographics Association, 1982)
      VISTA is a 3-D colour perspective package with hidden surface elimination being developed at the Architecture & Building Aids Computer Unit, Strathclyde (ABACUS). It is an attempt to model the visual reality of both the ...

    • ON CONSTRUCTING INTERACTIVE GRAPHICS SYSTEMS 

      Hanusa, Henning; Kuhlmann, Herbert W.; Pfaff, Günther E. (The Eurographics Association, 1982)
      Abstract: A framework for generating a graphics dialogue system dedicated to special application, user, and graphics hardware characteristics is presented. A prerequisite is the design of common dialogue methods and the ...

    • ANALYSIS OF THE DESIGN PROCESS AS BASIS FOR THE DEFINITION OF CAD-FUNCTIONS DISTRIBUTED ON HIERARCHICAL NETWORKS 

      Gorny, Peter (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, ...

    • COMPUTER GRAPHICS IN INTERACTIVE DISCRETE-EVENT SIMULATION 

      Bennett, B. S. (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 ...

    • GRAPH: An Interactive Program based on the Graphical Kernel System 

      Slater, M.; Baker, R. J. (The Eurographics Association, 1982)

    • ALITE - AN ENGINEERING TOOL FOR AUTOMATIC CHIP DESIGN 

      Anson, R. C.; Tweedly, A. G. (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 ...

    • COMPUTER-AIDED DESIGN SYSTEM FOR THREE-DIMENSIONAL SHAPE PLANE FIGURES SHOE MAKING APPLICATION 

      DULLIN, Eric; OUARET, Seddik; MAY, Paul (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 REPRESENTATION AND USE OF MULTIVARIATE INFORMATION IN GRAPHIC FORM 

      Kirby, G. H.; Visvalingam, M. (The Eurographics Association, 1982)

    • A PACKAGE FOR PROCESSING REMOTE SENSING DATA INTERACTIVELY ON A MINI-COMPUTER SYSTEM 

      C.M.C.Jones,; J.P.W.Stark,; F.T.Howell, (The Eurographics Association, 1982)
      A package for the analysis of time sequence remote sensing data is described, which has been designed to run interactively on a mini-computer system utilising colour graphics facilities. The core of the system performs a ...

    • A PRACTICAL STRATEGY FOR CERTIFYING GKS IMPLEMENTATIONS 

      Brodlie, K. W.; Maguire, M. C.; Pfaff, G. E. (The Eurographics Association, 1982)
      The question of how to validate GKS implementations is crucial to the success of GKS as an international standard for computer graphics. This problem has been addressed by a series of certification workshops sponsored by ...
