XVision is an example of a comprehensive software system dedicated to the processing of multidimensional scientific data. Because it is comprehensive it is necessarily complex. This design complexity is dealt with by considering XVision as nine overlapping software systems, their components and the required standards. The complexity seen by a user of XVision is minimized by the different interfaces providing access to the image processing routines as well as an interface to ease the incorporation of new routines. The XVision project has stressed the importance of having: (1) interfaces to accommodate users with differing preferences and backgrounds and (2) tools to support the programmer and the scientist. The result is a system that provides a framework for building a powerful research, education and development tool
