What is Report on meeting of ISO/IEC JTC1/SC24/WG4 (computer graphics language bindings) about?

Since 1981, the ISO group responsible for computer graphics standards has been working on several projects whose purpose is to produce standards for various aspects of computer graphics systems. Included are standards,; at the application programmer interface (API), standards for picture exchange, standards for registering extensions to the standards, standards for binding API functionality to specific programming languages, and standards for testing and validating implementations of the standards. To this date, one API standard has been published, the Graphical Kernel System (GKS), along with language bindings to Fortran and PASCAL. Also published is the Computer Graphics Metafile (CGM) picture exchange standard with three encodings: binary, character, and clear-text. The binary encoding stores information as binary fields, the character encoding assigns character index codes to graphics functions, and the clear-text encoding is designed to be human-readable. Completed and soon to be published is the GKS Binding to Ada. Nearly completed and scheduled to be published this year is a second API standard, the Graphical Kernel System for Three-Dimensions accompanied by a GKS-3D/Fortran
