TL;DR: In this paper, an arrangement which includes apparatus for signifying the source of data to be displayed, apparatus for generating lines of data that fit between the lines of interlaced data, and apparatus for presenting on a non-interlaced output display device was presented.
Abstract: An arrangement which includes apparatus for signifying the source of data to be displayed, apparatus for generating lines of data to fit between the lines of interlaced data to be presented on a non-interlaced output display device, and apparatus for generating lines of data to be presented on an interlaced display from a larger number of lines representing non-interlaced data.

TL;DR: The search for rules for effective graphical display, whether for the purpose of communication, exploration, or reconstitution, has been hampered by the lack of a cohesive body of experimental evidence regarding the parameters of graphical display.
Abstract: The search for rules for effective graphical display, whether for the purpose of communication, exploration, or reconstitution, has been hampered by the lack of a cohesive body of experimental evidence regarding the parameters of efficacious graphical display. To some extent existing evidence is diverse because of the lack of a coordinating theoretical structure and an allied unified graphical vocabulary. In this article we use the rudiments of Berlin's theory of graphics and his graphical semiology. We also present two experimental studies of Two-Variable Color Maps, which we offer as examples of how questions about the efficacy of a graphical form can be addressed.

TL;DR: In this article, a graphics control for an interactive user interface includes a plurality of individually specified graphics components, which are overlaid on each other from bottom to top, creating a layered effect.
Abstract: A graphics control for an interactive user interface includes a plurality of individually specified graphics components. Each graphics component has non-transparent portions and potentially also has transparent portions. In one embodiment, the graphics components include a background component, a face component, a frame component, and a focus component. The components are overlaid on each other from bottom to top, creating a layered effect. The face component is selectable by the user input to perform an action, and selecting the face component changes the appearance of the face component. Other than the background component, the components each are constructed of a texture bitmap and one or more luminance bitmaps. The texture bitmaps are tiled to conserve memory and data bandwidth. The luminance bitmaps can be supplied in a small size, and scaled using a special tiling technique.

TL;DR: In this article, a graphical image management system registers each image in a graphical database which can be used to select and organize the images to generate a display record identifying images which meet certain user defined criteria.
Abstract: A graphics image management system registers each image in a graphical database which can be used to select and organize the images to generate a display record identifying images which meet certain user defined criteria. Each record contains a filename and contains an index name that does not need to be unique. The graphic image management system also includes a mechanism for displaying representations of each image on a display screen. The displayed graphic images can be scrolled in a picture browser window in any order as determined by the database. Index names may be used for selection of a graphical image in a combo box. In addition, a descriptive phrase can be associated with each image in order to further identify the image and these phrases can be searched to locate a particular image.

TL;DR: New approaches to graphics are needed to visualize the information in large datasets and most of the innovations described in this book are developments of standard graphics.
Abstract: This book shows how to look at ways of visualizing large datasets, whether large in numbers of cases, or large in numbers of variables, or large in both. All ideas are illustrated with displays from analyses of real datasets and the importance of interpreting displays effectively is emphasized. Graphics should be drawn to convey information and the book includes many insightful examples. New approaches to graphics are needed to visualize the information in large datasets and most of the innovations described in this book are developments of standard graphics. The book is accessible to readers with some experience of drawing statistical graphics.
