REQUIREMENTS AND BENEFITS OF INTEGRATED COMPUTER AIDED SHIP DESIGN AND PRODUCTION

Of significant importance to an increasing number of members of the United States shipbuilding community is the need to identify techniques which will allow them to greatly reduce contract signing-to-delivery times. One particularly beneficial technique appears to be the use of the computer in an integrated manner by design groups and production planners to build and utilize a unified, product model representation of the technical and production information describing the ship to be built.
