    GosiP: A GKS3D Shell for PHIGS
    (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1990) French, Michael
    Gosip is an implementation of a GKS-3D level 2c interface to PHIGS. It allows GKS applications to run on PHIGS platforms, offering performance and portability across a wide range of high-performance 3D workstations. Compatibility of the standards is reviewed. A selection of design solutions is given for the problems of error processing, non-retained primitives and attribute management. The concepts of Workstation Display Session and atmbute state are introduced. Some comments are made on implementation dependencies, performance and portability.
