The Use of VLSI Technology for the Real-Time Generation of Graphics Displays: A Proposal,

Abstract

This study proposes tolook at special purpose VLSI architectures for realtime display generation. The goal is the development of a methodology for taking a selected computer graphics algorithm and producing a silicon system that performs that algorithm. Several graphics algorithms that have the potential for VLSI implementation will be identified and studied. Part of this effort will be a characterization of the changes in the architecture of the graphics display system made necessary by the addition of such real-time display generation. Keywords include: contour surface display generation, and real-time display generation.
