Abstract

A method to bridge standalone CAD systems is presented. The method uses a middleware agent to wrap the standalone CAD systems. Both inside and outside encapsulations are constructed inside the agent. The online bridge has been initially implemented to integrate commercial CAD systems for distributed and collaborative applications.
