  • GKS-94 to SVG: Some Reflections on the Evolution of Standards for 2D
    EG UK Computer Graphics & Visual Computing (2015) Rita Borgo, Cagatay Turkay (Editors) GKS-94 to SVG: Some Reflections on the Evolution of Standards for 2D Graphics D. A. Duce1 and F.R.A. Hopgood2 1Department of Computing and Communication Technologies, Oxford Brookes University, UK 2Retired, UK Abstract Activities to define international standards for computer graphics, in particular through ISO/IEC, started in the 1970s. The advent of the World Wide Web has brought new requirements and opportunities for standardization and now a variety of bodies including ISO/IEC and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) promulgate standards in this space. This paper takes a historical look at one of the early ISO/IEC standards for 2D graphics, the Graph- ical Kernel System (GKS) and compares key concepts and approaches in this standard (as revised in 1994) with concepts and approaches in the W3C Recommendation for Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). The paper reflects on successes as well as lost opportunities. Categories and Subject Descriptors (according to ACM CCS): I.3.6 [Computer Graphics]: Methodology and Techniques—Standards 1. Introduction a W3C Recommendation early in 1999. The current (at the time of writing) revision was published in 2010 [web10]. The Graphical Kernel System (GKS) was the first ISO/IEC international standard for computer graphics and was pub- It was clear from the early days that a vector graphics for- lished in 1985 [GKS85]. This was followed by other stan- mat specifically for the web would be a useful addition to the dards including the Computer Graphics Metafile (CGM), then-available set of markup languages.

    Input, Interaction and Animation CS 432 Interactive Computer Graphics Prof. David E. Breen Department of Computer Science E. Angel and D. Shreiner : Interactive Computer Graphics 6E © Addison-Wesley 2012 1 Objectives • Introduce the basic input devices - Physical Devices - Logical Devices - Input Modes • Event-driven input • Introduce double buffering for smooth animations • Programming event input with WebGL E. Angel and D. Shreiner : Interactive Computer Graphics 6E © Addison-Wesley 2012 2 Project Sketchpad • Ivan Sutherland (MIT 1963) established the basic interactive paradigm that characterizes interactive computer graphics: - User sees an object on the display - User points to (picks) the object with an input device (light pen, mouse, trackball) - Object changes (moves, rotates, morphs) - Repeat E. Angel and D. Shreiner : Interactive Computer Graphics 6E © Addison-Wesley 2012 3 Graphical Input • Devices can be described either by - Physical properties • Mouse • Keyboard • Trackball - Logical Properties • What is returned to program via API – A position – An object identifier – A scalar value • Modes - How and when input is obtained • Request or event E.

    Appendix: Graphics Software Took Appendix Objectives: • Provide a comprehensive list of graphics software tools. • Categorize graphics tools according to their applications. Many tools come with multiple functions. We put a primary category name behind a tool name in the alphabetic index, and put a tool name into multiple categories in the categorized index according to its functions. A.I. Graphics Tools Listed by Categories We have no intention of rating any of the tools. Many tools in the same category are not necessarily of the same quality or at the same capacity level. For example, a software tool may be just a simple function of another powerful package, but it may be free. Low4evel Graphics Libraries 1. DirectX/DirectSD - - 248 2. GKS-3D - - - 278 3. Mesa 342 4.

NIST, originally founded as the National Bureau of Standards in 1901, works to strengthen U.S. industry's competitiveness; advance science and engineering; and improve public health, safety, and the environment. One of the agency's basic functions is to develop, maintain, and retain custody of the national standards of measurement, and provide the means and methods for comparing standards used in science, engineering, manufacturing, commerce, industry, and education with the standards adopted or recognized by the Federal Government. As an agency of the U.S. Commerce Department's Technology Administration, NIST conducts basic and applied research in the physical sciences and engineering and performs related services. The Institute does generic and precompetitive work on new and advanced technologies. NIST's research facilities are located at Gaithersburg, MD 20899, and at Boulder, CO 80303.
