Abstract: | This paper describes an interactive biological macromolecule graphic system on the VAX-11/750 + Model75 image-processing system. It can display the structure of types of macromolecules on the color monitor, and various user-defined options are available. The display model can be either a stick-and-ball model or a space-filling model. The user can easily display windows, rotate and shift interactively. For the space-filling model, a light source can be adjusted to produce a satisfactory three-dimensional effect. A fast algorithm for shading processing is proposed based on the use of spatial correlation information. |
