Graphic interface design for DSS dialog management: a composite graphics approach

摘要

Text mode has been widely used for the dialog management of conventional decision support systems. It can be predicted, however, that a graphics mode will replace text mode. The paper creates a new computer graphics model, the composite graphics model, which can be widely accepted by DSS builders. It also develops a graphic display generator system based on a composite graphics model and shows the way to integrate composite graphics with a DSS tool.
