Abstract

This paper concerns the use of interactive computer graphics for processing “systems analysis” network pictures. These pictures typically represent project scheduling networks, computer programming flow diagrams, job-resource simulation block diagrams, decision trees, flow in networks, etc., and are traditionally the planning tools for researchers and planners in the fields of operations research, industrial engineering, and computer science. The purpose of the interactive graphics system is to provide a convenient “drawing board” with which to generate, manipulate, decompose, partition, simplify, and dlsplay network pictures as means of achieving rapid convergence in man-machine experiments. This research is in connection with the Bio-technology Laboratory of the Department of Industrial Engineering at Stanford University. An ADAGE computer system (AGT/10) with an on-line graphics terminal is being used under the sponsorship of N.I.H. project NLM 00525-1.
