A General Purpose User Interface With Hierarchical Data Structure Management
(The Eurographics Association, 1986)This paper presents a general purpose User Interface Management System based upon a user driven menu handling and a hierarchical organization of graphic data structure. The package has mainly two purposes: one being to ... -
A Version Management System for Design Environments
(The Eurographics Association, 1986)Design environments for CAD/CAM require new techniques of version management. This work presents a concept of a largely data modelindependent version manager thus allowing easy integration into any existing database system. ... -
An Implementation of the GKS-3D/Phigs Viewing Pipeline
(The Eurographics Association, 1986)Following the establishment of GKS as the first international standard for computer graphics, two new standards, GKS-3D and PHIGS, are emerging which cater for three dimensional graphics. In order to display a 3-D object, ... -
Linked Management Graphics For Production Control
(The Eurographics Association, 1986)This paper describes the use of Linked Graphical Displays as a means of extending the information transfer capability of Management Graphics Systems in the context of Engineering Manufacturing. As the pace and complexity ... -
A Quad-Tree Algorithm for Displaying a 2-Dimensional Slice of an N-Dimensional Weighted Voronoi Tessellation
(The Eurographics Association, 1986) -
A consistent algorithm to fill triangles and triangular patches
(The Eurographics Association, 1986)In this paper an algorithm is described for filling triangles in 3D. Since this algorithm uses integer arithmetic only, it is not hampered by inconsistencies that normally arise due to finite machine precision. Moreover, ... -
Deformations of Sweep Objects in Solid Modelling
(The Eurographics Association, 1986)Deformations, such as bending, twisting and tapering, are important operations for modifying the shape of solid objects. In this paper, we present methods to deform objects defined by sweeping. A closed 2D polygon (the ... -
Digital Synthesis Of Calligraphic Script
(The Eurographics Association, 1986)We discuss some of the problems associated with the generation of publication quality, quasi-calligraphic script from keyboard input. Our ultimate goal is the construction of a system for the production of Arabic texts, ...
