The objective is to create presentation graphics software which the air force will use in engineering/technical briefings. This software will operate on zenith-100 microcomputers as well as large screen projection systems, and will have the following features: 1) display various types of graphs (bar, pie, line, area fills, trend lines, linear regressions, x-y plots, log-log charts) and calculate statistical relationships. 2) Integrate text and graphics in one chart. 3) Access data from lotus 1-2-3 and other software. 4) Create automated slide shows. 5) Be menu-driven and require no computer background to use. Analytical software will use its existing software product, boardroom graphics, which already has many of these desired features, as the basis for the work. Enhancements will be made to meet the following air force requirements: make the software compatible with z-100 hardware, integrate graphics and text charts onscreen, access data from dbase and wordstar software, and increase the flexibility of the slide show options.
