  • Jacks, Edwin L. "Designer's Choice at the Console" view details Abstract: In this paper design concepts for an experimental graphics system are described. The objective of the system is to minimize the time required to perform a design task by providing essentially a full graphic environment in which both creative design and design programming may be done. While most of the concepts contained in the paper have been tested in graphic systems in General Motors no system has been constructed containing all the concepts as described.
