A Potential Framework for CAD/CAE/CIM Decisions

Bruce W. Main, Allen C. Ward

Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

Abstract This paper outlines some common problem categories taken from the literature in implementing company-wide computer integration. These problem categories form a framework for making CAD/CAE/CIM decisions. The framework addresses the following problem categories: detrimental impacts of computerization systems on design creativity, difficulties with CAD communications, inhibiting effects on continual improvement, problems of computerizational integration preceding organizational integration, and process-driven versus need-based computer integration efforts. The framework may assist CAD/CAE/CIM decision makers with their integration efforts.
