Chapter 7: Organizations, conferences, & graphics standards
7.3 Early Graphics Publications
Over the years since the graphics discipline began there have been a number of graphics journals and publications, most of which are still being published [1]. They include:
U.S. Journals
- ACM Transactions on Graphics (TOG)
- Communications of the ACM (CACM)
- Computer Graphics (Proceedings of the SIGGRAPH Conference)
- Journal of the ACM (JACM)
- ACM Computing Surveys (defunct)
- IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications (CG&A)
- IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics
- IEEE Spectrum
- Graphical Models and Image Processing
- Computer Graphics and Image Processing
- Computer Graphics, Vision, and Image Processing (formerly CGIP)
- International Journal of Computational Geometry and Applications
- journal of graphics tools
- Computer Graphics World (CGW)
- Graphical Models (formerly Graphical Models and Image Processing)
- High Performance Computer Graphics, Multimedia and Visualization
- IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics (TVCG)
- Proceedings of the National Computer Conference (defunct)
- Proceedings of the Fall Joint Computer Conference (defunct)
- Proceedings of the Spring Joint Computer Conference (defunct)
- AFIPS (American Federation of Information Processing Societies)
- IBM Systems Journal
- UAIDE (Users of Automatic Inform. Display Equipment) (defunct)
European Journals
- The Visual Computer
- Computer-Aided Design
- Computer Aided Geometric Design
- International Journal of Shape Modeling
- Computers & Graphics
- Computer Graphics Forum, editors
- The Journal of Visualization and Computer Animation
- Computational Geometry
- Machine Graphics and Vision
- IFIPS (International Federation of Information Processing Societies)
Also, popular publications like Scientific American, Byte Magazine, Computer Pictures, Datamation and others have published graphics articles. Esoteric journals in related areas (Journal of Approximation, Applied Mathematics, SAE, …) and proceedings of small conferences were publishing venues for graphics researchers. Several publishers produced newsletters for the industry, including the S. Klein Newsletter, the Roncerelli Report and Pixel News, Joel Orr’s Computer Graphics Newsletter (which evolved into Computer Graphics World Magazine), the SIGGRAPH newsletter, and others.
