PLUS : a conversational regional planning tool / by M.F. Goodchild, J.H. Ross, W.G. Swanson. : En66-1/14E-PDF
"The geographic information system PLUS consists of two separate parts. The first, PLUS/X, operates in polygon mode and carries out data preparation for the second part, PLUS/2, which is a grid system. PLUS/X requires an expert user and a large computer, while PLUS/2 can be used by a layman with access to a mini-computer. This paper sets forth the background which led to the development of PLUS, presents the logic which defined its hybrid nature, describes the principal functions of the system and presents nine practical problems and the steps necessary to resolve them through the use of PLUS"--Abstract, page ii.
