Computer graphics and architecture

ACM SIGGRAPH Computer Graphics, 1998
During the three decades since Ivan Sutherland introduced the Sketchpad system [7], there has been an outpouring of computer graphics systems for use in architecture [3, 5]. In response to this development, most of the major architectural firms around the world have embraced the idea that computer literacy is mandatory for success.

An Architecture for Interactive Raster Graphics.

1992
A radical reappraisal of the 3-D Interactive raster graphics pipeline has resulted In an experimental architecture for a workstation which is currently being evaluated at the CW!. The principal features of this architecture are that It: - concentrates exclusively on real-time interactive 3-D graphics (initially for CAD). - uses object space rather than

Computer aided graphics in architecture and planning

Proceedings of the ACM annual conference on - ACM '72, 1972
Computer-aided graphics is illustrated by the use of ARK 2 system in two and three dimensional graphics manipulation. The ease of using this system is emphasized. ARK 2 is a user-oriented computer-aided design system for architects and planners who have little knowledge of computers.

Architecture of the IBM 3277 Graphics Attachment

IBM Systems Journal, 1980
The IBM 3277 Graphics Attachment is an interactive computer graphics workstation using a dual-screen concept. A storage display monitor is attached to an IBM 3277 Display Station, the combination providing low-cost, moderate-performance interactive graphics. This paper describes the architecture of the Graphics Attachment, both functional structure and

Graphical model architectures for speech recognition

IEEE Signal Processing Magazine, 2005
This article discusses the foundations of the use of graphical models for speech recognition as presented in J. R. Deller et al. (1993), X. D. Huang et al. (2001), F. Jelinek (19970, L. R. Rabiner and B. -H. Juang (1993) and S. Young et al. (1990) giving detailed accounts of some of the more successful cases.

An architecture of a universal DBMS for graphics applications

Proceedings. Computer Graphics International (Cat. No.98EX149), 2002
This paper presents a new architecture of a database management system intended to be used together with existing graphics software. In the first place, a system with this architecture shall be capable of coping with the large variety of data representations typically found in the graphics domain.

Computer Graphics in Architecture

1971
In using the computer to assist in scientific or semi-scientific endeavors, there has been a tendency to mold the problem to be solved to the techniques, rather than to mold the techniques to the problem. For example, it is possible to draw high precision perspective views of a building using a very expensive mechanical plotter.

An Architecture for Knowledge-Based Graphical Interfaces

ACM SIGCHI Bulletin, 1988
The construction of intelligent interfaces can be greatly facilitated by classifying the information that users and programs communicate, and by separating the user interface from the functionality of a program. This paper presents a scheme for classifying this information, and show how, by structuring the interface around this scheme, the user ...

Dynamic RAM architectures for graphics applications

Proceedings of the May 16-19, 1983, national computer conference on - AFIPS '83, 1983
This paper explores the requirements for future graphics memories and analyzes the requirements for two of the biggest problems in graphics terminal design, raster display bandwidth and random-bit update performance. To solve these problems a new access mode for dynamic RAMs called Ripplemode™ will be proposed.

Developing the GX graphics accelerator architecture

IEEE Micro, 1990
A novel approach to acceleration is described whereby high-level graphics on entry-level workstations has become practical. In the GX, the host CPU functions as the intelligent controller and two large ASICs (application-specific ICs) supply hardwired graphics functions. An arbitrary quadrilateral is the GX's only geometric primitive.
