Publisher's Synopsis
Future generations of Computer-Aided Design (CAD) systems are expected to offer powerful support for the functional, geometrical and technological description of products. New intelligent system architectures covering feature modelling, knowledge processing and simulation techniques, as well as comprehensive information access capabilities will open novel possibilities for product modelling. The result will be a real opportunity for direct cooperation between human creativity/discernment and information processing systems, working together to draft and analyze technical products. In this book, leading researchers and system developers present, discuss and summarize research and development of new theories, as well as advanced applications of geometric modelling.
