Optimum Systems Design of Computer Driven Graphics Terminals

The subject of the study reported here is the systems design of highly-interactive graphical display terminals for time-shared computer systems. A more detailed report of the work is available in a reference (6). The overall goal of the study is to develop insight into how the choice of subsystems for a display system can affect the system’s performance, and to develop methods of finding the combination of subsystems which will be optimum for any well defined display application, where optimum is defined as minimizing a display system’s response time subject to a cost constraint.
