The paper presents a comparative analysis of three graphic languages (CORE, GKS-3D and PHIGS) which can be considered as representing the main stages in the process of standardizing a general purpose graphic language. The way in which the evolution of graphic languages has favourd a greater flexibilty for the user at the price of a heavier load for the system is underlined. The different conceptual backgrounds of the three languages are briefly discussed with respect to their embedding in graphic data bases for sophisticated applications.

Abstract
The paper presents a comparative analysis of three graphic languages (CORE, GKS-3D and PHIGS) which can be considered as representing the main stages in the process of standardizing a general purpose graphic language. The way in which the evolution of graphic languages has favourd a greater flexibilty for the user at the price of a heavier load for the system is underlined. The different conceptual backgrounds of the three languages are briefly discussed with respect to their embedding in graphic data bases for sophisticated applications.File in questo prodotto:
