dc.description.abstractSystems allowing the creation and manipulation of graphical information (so-called Graphic Editors) have become essential in various fields of applications. At the same time the typical user of such a system has changed. Not computer experts, but designers, secretaries, technicians, teachers etc. are today's typical users of computer graphics, mostly on microcomputers. Obviously it would be desirable to have a common concept of graphics editing covering many applications. The purpose of this paper is a brief survey of the EDEN project started at the IIGb in 1987: the motivation for the project, the major steps, results, current status and future work is presented here. EDEN (short for EDitor ENvironnient) is a generic concept for object-oriented graphics editing, providing device independence at the workstation and graphics output level as well as an application independent file-format for the storage and exchange between different graphics applications.en_US
