DESCRIPTION

BS ISO/IEC 9637-2:1992


This standard BS ISO/IEC 9637-2:1992 Information technology. Computer graphics. Interfacing techniques for dialogues with graphical devices (CGI). Data stream binding is classified in these ICS categories:
  • 35.040.30 Coding of graphical and photographical information
  • 35.140 Computer graphics

This part of ISO/IEC 9637 specifies a Binary Encoding of the Computer Graphics Interface (CGI) data stream. For each of the function syntaxes in clause 5 and clause 6 of ISO/IEC 9636-2, ISO/IEC 9636-3, ISO/IEC 9636-4, ISO/IEC 9636-5, and ISO/IEC 9636-6, an encoding is specified in terms of an opcode and a sequence of parameters of specified data types. For each of these data types, an explicit representation in terms of bits, 8-bit and 16-bit entities is specified. For some data types, the exact representation depends on a type and/or precision for the data as used in the data stream.

The Binary Encoding of the Computer Graphics Interface data stream will, in many circumstances, reduce the effort required to generate and interpret the data stream as compared to other encodings.
