This differs from a conventional system in that ultra high definition pictures of upto 1 gigabyte may be created. We discuss approaches to implementing a number of standard paint program utilities in a form suited to our high definition method. Finally, we describe an algorithm for the rapid extrusion of brush strokes on a raster device.10.1111/j.1467-8659.1987.tb00359.x125-132
