Another reference is the chapter on halftoning in David F. Rogers' "Procedural
Elements for Computer Graphics", McGrawHill, p. 102-108.  If you want (and can
get) the original article, this is the reference:

Floyd and Steinberg, "An Adaptive Algorithm for Spatial Gray Scale", SID
1975, Int. Symp. Dig. Tech., Pap., pp. 36-37, 1975.

Enjoy.
