  • Abstract
    CAD systems with embedded, integrated knowledge-based components can make users more productive by leveraging knowledge about the design, engineering, and manufacture of the system or part being designed. We discuss some of the results of our experience, including the embedding of a knowledge-based systems tool in three commercial CAD systems using a special integration software program. This software, called Stonerule, acts as an integration mechanism between the CAD system and the knowledge-based design application.<>
