    • CHITRA - A LOW COST 2-D GRAPHICS PACKAGE FOR THE DESIGN OF DISCRETE SYSTEMS 

      Kumar, Ashok; Visweswara, G. H.; Rajaram, S.; Prabhakar, A. (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 ...

    • THE IMPORTANCE OF A CORRECT APPROACH TO THE DESIGN OF METAFILES STANDARDS 

      Arnold, David B. (The Eurographics Association, 1982)

    • PERSPECTIVE MAPPING OF PLANAR TEXTURIS 

      Gangnet, Michel; Perny, Didier; Coueignoux, Philippe (The Eurographics Association, 1982)
      Perspective mapping of planar textures is discussed along two directions. First we study the perspective mapping of a plane onto another plane. We show that the point to point computation involved can be broken down to a ...

    • WHATEVER HAPPENED TO COMPUTER ART? 

      Lansdown, John (The Eurographics Association, 1982)
      The way in which computer art has developed over the past fifteen years is discussed and the successes and failures touched upon. Suggestions are made on how computer artists might help in the business of general computer ...

    • THE APPLICATION OF DATA COMPRESSION TECHNIQUES TO COMPUTER GRAPHICS 

      Daskalakis, C.; Hankins, H.C.A. (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 ...

    • GENERATING AND PRINTING OF HIGH QUALITY DOCUMENTS IN A DISTRIBUTED OFFICE AUTOMATION NETWORK ENVIRONMENT 

      Hersch, R.D. (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 ...

    • COMPUTER GRAPHICS FOR REGIONAL PLANNING: MONITORING WOODLAND RESOURCES BY A LAND INFORMATION SYSTEM 

      Contin, Silvana (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 

      Suwais, M.A.; Cooper, D.C. (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 ...

    • A SEMANTIC VIEW ON GEOMETRIC REPRESENTATION OF URBAN LAND INFORMATION 

      Eloranta, Kirsi (The Eurographics Association, 1982)
      In this paper we deal with graphical representation of spatially referenced information. We introduce an approach to geometric representation based on the Entity-Attribute-Relationship (EAR)-model. Our object system is an ...

    • A FAST ALGORITHM FOR COLOUR REGION SEGMENTATION 

      Stark, J.P.W.; Mahdavieh, Y.; Tjahjardi, T. (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 ...

    • INTERACTIVE GENERATION OF 3-DIMENSIONAL COMPUTER GRAPHICS 

      Sutty, George J. (The Eurographics Association, 1982)
      A new technology employing a vibrating mirror produces spacefilling images. An observer views a reflection of a CRT in a moving mirror. By displaying a proper sequence of pictures 30 times a second, a space filling ...

    • MEASURES OF OPERATOR S VISUAL ACCOMMODATION AND CONVERGENCE TO INFORMATION DISPLAYS 

      Murch, Gerald M. (The Eurographics Association, 1982)
      Measurements of a display user s lens accommodation and binocular convergence were used to assess the visual impact of display color, display technology, display work time, and display contrast. The studies reported here ...

    • A BIFOCAL DISPLAY TECHNIQUE FOR DATA PRESENTATION 

      Apperley, M. D.; Tzavaras, I.; Spence, R. (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 ...
