AN INTERACTIVE REAL TIME DESIGN PROCEDURE IN SHIP INITIAL DESIGN

Ten years of development has brought the electronic computer from a mathematical work horse that performed the drudgery for the naval architect to an interactive companion that can cooperate with the naval achitect in the initial ship design. This devlopment has been greatly facilitated by the conversational-mode processing method. How this system works to save time and its limitation in initial design is the subject of this paper.
