Summary: This research paper presents the description of a Mini-Computer Based General Purpose Interactive Computer Graphics Software System; which has been installed at the University of Central Florida, College of Engineering PDP 11/34 computer system. This system is a simplified version of MOVIE.BYU. MOVIE.BYU is a General Purpose Interactive Computer Graphics Software System that requires a computer with a word length of at least 32-bits. The MOVIE.BYU system was developed at the Brigham Young University, Utah. Extensive modification was required in order to satisfy the PDP 11/34 FORTRAN IV compiler. In addition, the program routines have been overlayed in order to accommodate the programs in the PDF 11/34 memory. The system has been exercised and hard-copy of the results are presented in order to demonstrate its capabilities.
