In 1988, Silicon Graphics introduced the MIPS-based workstation computer, the Personal IRIS series. A few years later, IBM licensed both the graphics subsystem and the (then new) IRIS Graphics Library (IRIS GL) API for their RS/6000 POWERstation line of POWER1-based workstations. IrisVision was an unintended offshoot of SGI's attempts to port ...
IRIS GL (Integrated Raster Imaging System Graphics Library) is a proprietary graphics API created by Silicon Graphics (SGI) in the early 1980s for producing 2D and 3D computer graphics on their IRIX-based IRIS graphical workstations.
IRIS (Intelligent Roadway Information System) is an open-source Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) software project developed by the Minnesota Department of Transportation. It is used by transportation agencies to monitor and manage interstate and highway traffic.
A screen in F.lux's "darkroom mode" On installation, the user can choose a location based on geographic coordinates, a ZIP code, or the name of a location.The program then automatically calibrates the device display's color temperature to account for time of day, based on sunrise and sunset at the chosen location.
As the software industry was developing, the question of how to best document software programs was undecided. This was a unique problem for software developers, since users often became frustrated with current help documents. [2] Some considerations for writing a user guide that developed at this time include: the use of plain language [2]
Iris spuria, or blue flag, is a species of the genus Iris, part of the subgenus Limniris and the series Spuriae. It is a rhizomatous perennial plant, from Europe, Asia and Africa. It has purple or lilac flowers, and slender, elongated leaves. It is widely cultivated as an ornamental plant in temperate regions and hybridized for use in the garden.
It was soon followed by the IRIS 1200, another terminal with a larger backplane, [1] before the IRIS 1400 emerged as SGCS's first standalone workstation in 1984. [2] The processor used in these early systems, the 'PM1', was a variant of the SUN (Stanford UNiversity) processor, and sported a Motorola 68000 (or 68010) clocked at 8 MHz.
Founded 1982, SGI introduced the IRIS 1000 Series [19] in 1983. [20] The first graphical terminals (IRIS 1000) shipped in late 1983, and the corresponding workstation model (IRIS 1400) was released in mid-1984. The machines used an early version of the MEX windowing system on top of the GL2 Release 1 operating environment. [21]
