Abstract

The Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Centre at Cambridge, England has pursued a policy of cooperation with various industrial organizations to specify and develop computer programs which fulfil a variety of needs. These needs are dependent on the nature of the industry involved and have resulted in diverse application programs which include: visualization packages to assist architects to "see" the building they are designing before it is built; systems to assist the design and costing of chemical plant, and programs to generate the precision artwork for printed circuit boards.
