Fast Access to Archival Information Stored on Optical Memory Discs
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)A database processor based on a multi-microprocessor system managing archival data was developed for the use in local area networks. To grant fast and easy access from office workstations to heterogeneous information stored ... -
An Intelligent Graphics Terminal's Intermediate Database
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)The Intelligent Graphics Terminal's Intermediate Database (INGRID) handles storage, retrieval and manipulation of the description of graphic items in the memory of an Intelligent Graphics Terminal. INGRID combines on one ... -
A Delaunay-Based Method for Surface Approximation
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)This paper describes a method for constructing a surface representation model from a given set of data points.A Triangulated Irregular. Network has been chosen as data structure, thus representing the surface as a set of ... -
DisArray: A 16x16 RasterOp Processor
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)RasterOp is a powerful primitive operation for raster graphics. To improve the execution rate of this operation, a machine with a set of 256 1-bit processors organised as a 16x16 array has been constructed. This machine ... -
Computer Graphic Presentation of Road Data
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)This paper presents a system for plotting traffic accidents and other data related to roads, on computer drawn maps. A method for simultaneous presentation of many different aspects of the road is also described. -
XGKS - A Multitask Implementation of GKS
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)A multitask design for GKS is presented, a realization aiming small computers and intelligent graphic hardware. -
Decision Support Systems - The Significance of Hybrid Communication Facilities for Operations Research Consultancy
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)In this paper the significance of suitable combinations of analogue and digital communication facilities in the design and implementation of Decision Support Systems (DSS) will be discussed within the context of practical ... -
Depth Sorting by Windowing
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)In this paper we present the first version of a new algorithm for hidden-surface and hidden-line elimination which applies primarily to the generation of indoor perspective views of simple building models. The algorithm ... -
Interactive Graphical Planning
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)Accurate planning is an essential part of efficient project management, but computer-aided techniques have, in the past, not fulfilled their potential in this important field, This paper describes how interactive graphics ... -
Visualizing Inversions in Time with Computer Graphics
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)An example of how computer graphics have been used to visually explore the INVERSION SPACE, and its educational and artistic implications. -
Inverse Perspective Mapping in Scanline Order onto Non-Planar Quadrilaterals
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)Mapping textures onto three dimensional objects should resolve two class of problem ; first find a correspondence between the texture and the displayed object, secondly filter the texture according the display grid and the ... -

(The Eurographics Association, 1983) -
Fast Previewing Techniques in Raster Graphics
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)The long processing times inherent in the use of raster graphics techniques for the shading of complex scenes, complicate the design and debugging of a picture. The efficiency of the picture-generating process can, however, ... -
Towards GKS Binding to PASCAL
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)When binding GKS to the Pascal programming language some problems arise which are not trivial, Problems related to the use of a library, to the passing of array parameters to procedures and to the definition of suitable ... -
CAD in the Design of Railway-Highway Intersection Safety Equipment and Railway Station Safety Equipment
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)We describe a software package for the automation of design activities and the automatic production of design documentation. The package is currently beeing used by a consulting organisation in the design of railway -highway ... -
Photogrammetric Stereocompilation Supported by Interactive Computer Graphics (Abstract)
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)A single-user computer graphics supported stereophotogrammetric digitizing system is presented in its intermediate experimental state. Essential system component is a Tektronix 4054 graphics desk-top computer connected to ... -
Principal Patches - A New Class of Surface Patch Based on Differential Geometry
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)This paper describes a new class of surface patch for use in computational geometry, where fairness is built in at the design stage by using ideas from differential geometry. Principal patches are patches whose sides are ... -
