Introduction The motivation for the LIAR came from the need to collect together reusable software modules, written in C/C++, and to break the cycle of continually producing one-off image analysis function programs at CSIRO Mathematics and Information Sciences. On a more wider apsect, there are many laboratories around the world producing image analysis routines, mostly to perform the same or similar task. Therefore, there is a need for a methodology for the systematic exchange of image analysis code between different and divergent groups. One of the main purposes of the LIAR, is to provide guidelines for the production and maintenance of a portable library of image analysis routines that can inherently interface to a variety of image analysis system. The main advantages of the proposed methodology are: (1) it can continuely develop while remaining backwardly compatable with old code; (2) it uses data encapsulation; (3) it helps to reduce complexity and (4) it uses techniques that equally apply to structured and object-orientated approaches.
