PROBLEMS IN USING COMPUTERS FOR ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC SYSTEM INSTALLATION DESIGN

The subject of computer applications is both extremely broad and highly technical. Therefore, the scope of this paper has been limited to discussion of problems, techniques, and conclusions external to any particular computer program. In order to more fully cover the subject the paper begins with a brief resume of the electrical design information required by the various production shops. This is followed by a discussion of problems encountered by the designer when developing documents to satisfy these requirements in terms of data processing equipment availability, management guidance, financial support, and general adaptive adjustments required of all parties. Possible alternatives or solutions to each impediment have been presented as part of the discussion.
