title: Computergraphics and biocommunication: a report on the impact.
abstract: This report is based on a survey conducted to determine the impact of computergraphics on biocommunication departments. Data and comments were received from 24 departmental directors and 45 computergraphics artists/operators. Reported are: impacts on productivity, turnaround times, staffing, and workloads; comments related to implementation of the technology; and advice concerning factors that affect job satisfaction for artists/operators. From the report emerges a picture of technology that, if properly implemented, can provide an exciting cost-effective tool for the biocommunicator.
