The book describes principles, methods and tools that are common to computer applications for design tasks in computer science and engineering. CAD is considered as a discipline that provides the required know-how in computer hardware and software, in systems analysis and in engineering methodology for specifying, designing, implementing, introducing, and using computer based systems for design purposes. The first chapter gives an impression of the book as a whole, and following chapters deal with the history of CAD, the process aspect of CAD, CAD architecture, implementation methodology, CAD engineering methods, CAD data transfer, and application examples. The flood of new developments in the field has led the authors to prepare this completely revised, updated and extended second edition. Extensive new material is included on computer graphics and graphics standards, implementation methodology and data trans fer. The book is aimed primarily at engineers who work or plan to work in CAD. It is also intended for students who seek a broad fundamental background in CAD.deComputer Aided Design (CAD)computer graphic006anthology
