Annotation and Control Subroutine Subprograms for Interactive Graphic Displays.
Abstract
Recently, numerous digital computer simulation programs have been developed an/or modified to incorporate the usage of the interactive computer graphics terminal system into their resulting output. The interactive computer graphics terminal system is used primarily to obtain interactive graphic displays as a portion of the simulation program output results. These displays are ideal for data analysis, data reduction and retention, and for inclusion within presentations and technical reports. However, these displays require annotations such that they can be identified at some future date. Certain difficult problems are associated with these annotations and their placement on the interactive graphic displays. Hence, this technical report is an attempt to describe those difficult problems, to provide a technique for their solution, and to acquaint the interactive computer graphics terminal system user of their existence. The use of these techniques and subroutines should make the interactive computer graphic displays more easily annotated and controlled than they have been in the past. (Author)
