    • Architectures of Graphic Processors for Interactive 2D Graphics 

      Fontenier, Guy; Gros, Pascal (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1988)
      Interactive 2-D systems have benefited greatly from the improvements in 1C technology. Today, the trend is to relieve the host computer from low level tasks through increasing the graphic system s computational power. The ...

    • A Note on Random Thresholding for Colour Synthesis 

      Lastra, G.L.; Rudinger, E.N. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1988)
      A simple algorithm that improves colour shaded images is presented. The algorithm does not trade spatial resolution for intensity resolution. The basic technique, based on random thresholding modulated by a pseudo-random ...

    • Guidelines for Determining When to Use GKS and When to Use PHIGS 

      Bettels, Jurgen; Bono, Peter R.; McGinnis, Eileen; Rix, Joachim (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1988)
      GKS, GKS-3D, and PHIGS are all approved ISO standards for the application programmer interface. How does a system analyst or programmer decide which standard to use for his application? This paper discusses the range of ...

    • A Prolog Environment for GKS-Based Graphics 

      Milanese, V. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1988)
      The Prolog language and GK.S are considered in an integrated fashion in order to create a flexible graphics environment. Prolog descriptive properties are devoted to creating hierarchical schemata which can be instantiated ...

    • Techniques for Animation on Microcomputers 

      Neelamkavil, F.; Beare, L. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1988)
      Animation is a powerful visualization aid and it has applications not only in the traditional areas of cartoons and fiction movies but also in the study of a wide variety of natural and simulated phenomena. Currently, there ...
