    • UltraPaint: A New Approach to a Painting System 

      Watters, Geoff; Willis, Philip (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1987)
      The ideas underlying a Painting System being developed at the University of Bath are introduced. This differs from a conventional system in that ultra high definition pictures of upto 1 gigabyte may be created. We discuss ...

    • Unifying Vector and Polygon Algorithms for Scan Conversion and Clipping 

      Kilgour, AIistair (Eurographics Association, 1987)
      In both scan conversion and clipping, algorithm for dealing with polygons are generally presented independently of those for vectors, although many of the operations performed are similar. This paper shows how polygon ...

    • A User-Interface Toolkit in Object-Oriented PostScript Owen M. Densmore 

      Densmore, Owen M.; Rosenthal, David S. H. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1987)
      Only the diehards want to develop applications using basic window system facilities. The preferred approach is a higher-level"toolkit" of user interface components, such as menus and scroll bars. Experience with current ...

    • Using Abstract Data Types To Define Large-scale World Models For Image Generation Systems 

      Marsh, S.C.; Grimsdale, R.L. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1987)
      The creation of databases for real-time image generation systems is expensive and time consuming. This is mostly due to the method of defining the world models which can currently represent an area of up to 500,000 sq Km. ...

    • A View of Eurographics 87 

      Howard, Toby (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1987)

    • Visual Simulation of Atmospheric Haze 

      Willis, P.J. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1987)
      For applications such as daylight visual pilot training simulators, the correct representation of aerial haze, mist and fog is of major importance in providing accurate depth cues and training in poor visibility conditions.We ...

    • Viz: A Production System Based User Interface Management System 

      van Harmelen, Mark; Wilson, Stephanie M. (Eurographics Association, 1987)
      A production system based User Interface Management System (UIMS) is discussed. The UIMS, called Viz, has been designed and implemented in a windowed workstation environment, and (a) capitalises on the graphical facilities ...

    • A VLSI System Architecture for High-Speed Radiative Transfer 3D Image Synthesis 

      Bu, Jichun; Deprettere, Ed F. (Eurographics Association, 1987)
      In this paper we present a VLSI system architecture for high-speed synthesis of 3D images composed of diffusely reflective surfaces. The system consists of two loosely coupled sub-systems. The first sub-system computes the ...
