Abstract:
A specialized graphics system has been developed for protein research; this system achieves real-time display and manipulation for line-segment models containing up to 4095 end points. The hardware consists of three components: 1) a collection of hardware subroutines assembled from digital computer building blocks called macromodules, 2) vector-matrix transformation and display equipment and 3) a small stored-program computer. This paper provides a general description of the system.
