Proceedings of Graphics Interface '91

Calgary, Alberta, Canada: 3-7 June 1991

© 1991. Published by Canadian Human-Computer Communications Society. ISBN 0-9695338-0-2.

Overview

The seventeenth Graphics Interface conference followed the trend established in 1986 to take place in conjunction with Vision Interface. Holding these two conferences jointly has helped to promote the interchange of ideas and raise the profile of both conferences. This was the second time that Graphics Interface was held in Calgary, Alberta. A total of 33 papers were accepted into the technical program plus three invited presentations.
