Sumario:The author argues that the computer science industry should develop a new computer-aided design (CAD) program in order to simplify the development and construction of computer hardware, shorten development time, and institute a new era of design. It examines the use of boundary-representation (B-rep) kernals, the concept of duplication, and version control. The author also examines testing and user design and experience.
