Sketchpad, A Man-Machine Graphical Communications System.
Between 1962 and 1964, Dr. Ivan Sutherland created Sketchpad: A
Man-Machine Graphical Communications System, arguably the
world’s first computer graphics system, and non-procedural
programming system. In this video, Dr. Alan Kay, from PARC,
discusses Sketchpad and its significance in determining the
nature of Object Oriented graphical interfaces. In this
Computing Family Tree diagram◊, note how Sketchpad is considered
the origination point for the modern operating system, as we
know it. - Sketchpad, PhD. Dissertation, .pdf (3.9 MB) ↓ -
