The storage, retrieval and display of integrated graphics and text (Panel)

Abstract

Methodologies, techniques and applications for the storage, retrieval and display of integrated graphics and text will be discussed. Current areas of interest include engineering drawings, CAD, publishing, graphics and databases, business graphics, office systems, cartography, typography and high quality text. This topic is at the leading edge of current developments and cost-effective applications will be examined. Dr. Rae Earnshaw, Chairman of the BCS Displays Group, will outline current needs and objectives for integrating graphics and text in the context of information processing and display, and indicate progress towards the long term goal of “what you see is what you print”.
