In 1977 the ACM Special Interest Group for Graphics
(SIGGRAPH) formed the Graphics Standards Planning
Committee (GSPC) to develop a standard for the industry.
The result of their efforts was the CORE graphics
systems. This study discusses that system and the issues
involved in its creation. It describes Bell Northern
Research's approach to implementing CORE with their
Virtual Graphics Machine (VGM). The installation of VGM
at the Naval Postgraduate School on a PDP 11/50 with the
RSX-11M operating system is describing as well as the
initial efforts to expand it to drive the Ramtek RM-9400
Graphics Display System.
