HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Although examples of informal drawing of networks and hand-drawn graph layouts can be found stretching back many decades, the discipline of visualizing network data in a systematic fashion dates back only to the availability of computers, with an early paper by Tutte in 1963 titled “How to Draw a Graph” being a prime example. In 1992, the conference International Symposium...

An example-driven graphics recognition scheme is presented, which is an extension of the generic graphics recognition algorithm we presented years ago. The key idea is that, interactively, the user can specify one or more examples of one type of graphic objects in an engineering drawing image, an the system then learn the constraint rules among the components in this type of graphic objects and...

This paper concerns a multimodal interface for designing graphics. The human-machine interaction is achieved by using a pen computer connected to a speech recognition device. The user and the computer cooperate: the user sketches graphics with the pen, the computer understands the user's intention and displays an accurate version of the hand-sketched drawing. The final document is produced sequ...

This article deals with e-learning course of computer graphics that was created for distance, “face to face” and blended learning at the Department of Informatics, Faculty of Natural Sciences, Constantine the Philosopher University in Nitra, Slovak republic. The subject Computer Graphics is the part of bachelor study program of discipline Applied Informatics and is determined for students of ma...

In this paper, the requirements of the graphic editor in the electrical automation monitoring system are analyzed in detail. The electrical automation monitoring system requirements, and puts forward the key technology of software architecture based on. Net platform and MVC design pattern to design and develop the technical scheme and the graphics editor, and to the local refresh, editor of gra...

This paper focuses upon the development of a multimedia toolkit to support the teaching of Engineering Graphics Course. The project used different elements for the toolkit; animations, videos and presentations which were then integrated in a dedicated internet website. The purpose of using these elements is to assist the students building and practicing the needed engineering skills at their ow...
