ONE LINE DESCRIPTION:

Window Image Processing Programmers Tool for Scientists and Engineers


EXPANDED DESCRIPTION:

Most of the projects were aimed at running on the PC platform and did not require any real-
time or multitasking. They did however require a lot of memory space and a Graphical User
Interface if they were to be interactive. Because of its low cost and huge support base
Windows was seen as a ideal environment for this software. Windows was chosen as a
preferred environment for developing this toolkit because it is, by design, graphically based
with levels of abstraction for all the hardware devices. This makes it more difficult to build a
small program but when the software becomes more complex, such as in image processing,
the task is much easier to implement. IWF allows relative novice programmers to develop
image processing tools and perform experimentation without the drudgery of learning all the
details of windows programming an without needing to develop low-level routines first. The
target for this software effort is to help engineers, scientists and students develop code quickly
an easility. A secondary goal of this effort is to build a highly structured software tool which is
based on a modular design. Each software project can be fit into place and modified without
changing the primary code for the program.
