IKSPFH - Concept and implementation of an object-oriented framework for image processing

Abstract This paper describes the concept of an Iconic Kernel System (IKSPFH)—a general software toolbox allowing image-processing algorithms to be implemented independently of computer hardware and operating systems. Following a strict object-oriented design philosophy, it provides a basic set of data structures and operations from which the application-specific software environments can be built. Special attention has been paid to the incorporation of already existing software into object-oriented environments, and to the integration of general classes of user interface systems. The concept has been implemented as a working prototype using several programming languages in a DEC-VAX/VMS environment.
