  • FAST COLOUR RASTER GRAPHICS USING AN ARRAY PROCESSOR 

    Walsby, Anthony M. (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    This paper shows how an array processor technique can be used as the basis of an animated (fast) colour raster display. It is amenable to expansion for more colours, greater speed and resolution, and large scale integration ...
  • A TV GRAPHICS DISPLAY FOR THE MAN-MACHINE INTERFACE 

    Anderssen, P.S.; Shering, G.; Stumpe, B. (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    The paper describes a graphical display system based on TV raster scan. Refresh signals to the TV monitors are supplied by a dedicated CAMAC module containing a digital store with one storage element per pixel. The display ...
  • COMPUTER GRAPHICS IN MULTIPLE MICROPROCESSOR SYSTEM 

    Ae, Tadashi; Takahashi, Koichi; Chiba, Haruyoshi; Ito, Tsurumi (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    In this paper we propose a method to implement the moving patterns which are consecutively related in a small computer system. Suppose that the patterns are constructed of many block elements. A pattern is derived by the ...
  • COMPUTROL IN FLIGHT SIMULATION 

    Ranjbaran, Sam E.; Swallow, Ron J. (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    Computrol is a prototype computer image generator being developed by Advanced Technology Systems, a division of the Austin Company. Its high speed architecture, and allocation of certain image generation functions to hard- ...
  • F.I.R.S.T., A HIGH RESOLUTION RASTER SCAN DISPLAY SYSTEM FOR INTERACTIVE LAYOUT OF TEXT AND FIGURES 

    Röthlisberger, H.; Rakotomalala, J. (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    F.I.R.S.T. (Fast Interactive Raster scan workSTation) is designed as a low cost high performance display for interactive applications. Low cost is achieved by using dynamic memories, and high performance implies a high ...
  • A CAD - SYSTEM FOR INTERACTIVE GRAPHICAL HANDLING OF HIERARCHICAL BLOCK DIAGRAM INFORMATION 

    Leinemann, Klaus (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    The CAD - system named GRIMBI is designed to support the functional modelling of large engineering systems. GRIMBI includes a data definition facility, to define model classes functionally and graphically. The data ...
  • DRAW - A GRAPHICAL PROGRAM WITH THE ABILITY TO DRAW CHEMICAL FORMULAE 

    Bicknell, Keith (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    DRAW is a program that allows the user to produce diagrams on the incremental plotter or other graphical display devices by means of simple instructions. Particular requirements for chemical formulae have been catered for, ...
  • INTERACTIVE COMPUTER GRAPHICS IN COMPUTER-AIDED DECISION ANALYSIS 

    Carpano, Marie-Jose; Leduc-Leballeur, Andre (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    Two systems for computer-aided decision analysis are presented. In both of them the man-machine communication is achieved through graphical displays. The first one has been designed to facilitate interactive structural ...
  • IMAGE MODELING ASPECTS OF NON-PROCEDURAL PARALLEL PROCESSING LANGUAGE 

    Enornoto, Hajime; Yonezaki, Naoki; Miyamura, Isao (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    Fundamental framework of image data modeling for image description and related high level non-procedural language are presented, Structure lines are introduced as invariant features of image to describe structure of images. ...
  • APPLICATIONS OF AN INTERACTIVE VECTOR GRAPHICS SYSTEM TO CHEMISTRY 

    WEBER, J.; BERNARDINELLI, G.; COMBREMONT, J.J.; ROCH, M. (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    This paper describes several applications to chemistry of a computer graphics equipment based on a mini-computer and an interactive vector graphics system. After a presentation of the hardware and software available, the ...
  • MODELLING AND DISPLAY CONCEPTS IN A HIGH-LEVEL GRAPH I CS PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE 

    Mannhardt, Ch.; Schrack, G. (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    The definition, manipulation and display of graphical data in an applications program can occur at different levels if graphical data are viewed as a hierarchy of output primitives. This paper discusses concepts of how ...
  • A L G R A , AN ALGEBRAIC-GRAPHIC PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE FOR MODELLING 

    Kiesewetter, Helmut (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    The programming language ALGRA is based on algebraicgraphic structures. The basic elements of ALGRA are binary formulas of these structures. As compared to DIGRA 73 abstract structural informations may be handled by ALGRA ...
  • Easy to Use Graph Drawing Procedures in ALGOL 68 

    Butland, S. D.; Butland, J. (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    An ALGOL68 implementation of a comprehensive set of graph drawing procedures is described. The procedures are designed to enable scientists and engineers writing programs in ALGOL68 to produce a wide range of graphs with ...
  • OPTIMIZED SOFTWARE DISTRIBUTION IN SATELLITE GRAPHICS SYSTEMS 

    Cullmann, Norbert (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    Interactive computer graphics requires satellite systems. The two software techniques used today with these systems ('fixed-function' and 'programmable satellite') showed to be unsatisfactory. This paper points out refined ...
  • C. G .A. L. 

    Comninos, Peter; Webster, Graeme (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    C.G.A.L. stands for Computer Graphics and Animation Language, and as its name implies, it is a computer language especially designed to help the user produce still and animated pictures with a Digital Computer. The major ...
  • COMPUTER GRAPHICS AND ARCHITECTURE 

    Rogers, Gary (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    Because computer-generated architectural drawings derive from common data bases, they can be more useful than those drawn manually. Beyond viewing functions, other operations (such as financial, spatial, and thermal analyses) ...
  • THE GHOST-80 INTERACTIVE METAFILE 

    Prior, W.A.J.; Sutherland, R.J. (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
    In an interactive graphics environment, a random-access metafile has advantages over the usual serial type. A description is given of the use of such an interactive metafile in the GHOST-80 graphics system, together with ...
  • GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS AND THE ODYSSEY PROJECT 

    Teicholz, E.; Nisen, B. (The Eurographics Association, 1980)
