Interactive Graphics in Data Processing: Implementation and usage
C. W. Day, L. L. Zimmerman · IBM Systems Journal · 1968
The present status of interactive graphic displays in the application environment is reviewed. Although graphics data processing is still largely experimental, several applications have come into productive use—especially in the areas of data and design analysis. The primary benefit from enhancing such applications with graphic displays is the savings in calendar time. Before surveying several application areas, user aspects and application characteristics are discussed.
