It starts from a file-and-translator approach evolving to a data-integrated tool environment, and finally reaching the stage of a data-integrated design environment for CAD (sometimes also called CAD Framework). In the following we will detail some aspects of these stages.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCAD , Programm , Datenbanksystem , Framework004On structuring primitives and communication primitives for design environmentsconferenceObject
