High Level Language Support for 3-Dimensional Graphics
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)In the paper the design process is analysed and a new model of the design process which is usefull in CAD is explained. At working a construction with the computer we have to consider the function and form. The function ... -
Standard Graphics as a Geometric Modelling Device
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)A view is taken on geometric modelling systems as abstract data types. Having this frame of reference, the Device Independent Segment Storage of standard graphics is considered, and found to possess useful capability of ... -
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 ... -
A Geometric Data Manager
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)GWB/DMS is the data management subsystem of GWB, the Geometric Work-Bench. I t has been designed specifically for three-dimensional computeraided design applications. As the data definition and manipulation take place with ... -
Solid Modeling with Parametric Surfaces
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)Solid modeling systems are now entering industrial usage. To guarantee their wide applicability, the capabilities of solid modelers should be enhanced to allow inclusion of free-form surfaces in their geometric models, ... -
Contribution to Methodic in CAD
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)In the paper the design process is analysed and a new model of the design process which is usefull in CAD is explained. At working a construction with the computer we have to consider the function and form. The function ... -
Syntactic Methods in Computer Graphics
(The Eurographics Association, 1983) -
Non-Rectangular Surface Patches Suitable for Inclusion in a B-Spline Surface
(The Eurographics Association, 1983) -
On Didactic Implications in the Teaching of Applied Mathematics from a Coupling of Interactive Graphics and Waves
(The Eurographics Association, 1983) -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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 ... -
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 ... -
A High Level Interface to the Graphical Kernel System - GKS
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)A Graphical Package is described with particular reference to the petroleum industry. One of its design aims is that it should act as a user interface to GKS and be as user friendly as possible. As a further design aim, ... -
Closed 2D Contour Algorithms for 3D Reconstruction
(The Eurographics Association, 1983)In collaboration with the department of Anatomy a software package (FORTRAN 77) for 3D reconstruction of anatomical material is under development. Input material consists of a series of planparallel slices of an embedded ... -
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, ... -
