Panel session on intelligent terminals: a position paper---chairman's introduction

Published: 04 June 1973 Publication History

Abstract

Intelligent terminals are those which, by means of stored logic, are able to perform some processing on data which passes through them to or from the computer systems to which they are connected. Such terminals may vary widely in the complexity of the processing which they are capable of performing. The spectrum ranges from limited-capability point-of-sale terminals through moderately intelligent text-oriented terminals up to powerful interactive graphics terminals. The common thread that ties all these types of terminals together is their processing power and the questions relating to it.
