Abstract
In order to compare the quality of different implementations of GKS, the ISO0 standard for computer graphics, an evaluation method for GKS implementations is presented. It is based upon several groups of criteria. One group of criteria is concerned with performance, by which we understand here the memory requirements and time requirements for programs using GKS functions. A program that measures the performance of GKS packages is presented. Results of this evaluation method with several commercially available GKS implementations are described in summary. A checklist for evaluation of standard graphics packages is added as an appendix.
