Lack of non-geometric knowledge is identified as a fundamental flaw of the modelers upon which most traditional three-dimensional Computer-Aided Design (CAD) systems are founded. A hybrid representation scheme is outlined which adds non-geometric semantics to the traditional modeling methods to form a knowledge base (K-Base). The K-Base system outlined borrows concepts from artificial intelligence research that will provide the basis for productivity increases demanded for the future.STATUS: Project Proceded to Phase II
