Abstract The need for superior design tools has lead to the development of better and more complex computer aided design programs. Two of the more important new developments in application tools being investigation are Object Oriented Languages, and HyperMedia. Object Oriented Languages allow the development of CAD tools where the parts being designed and the design procedures specified are conceptualized as objects. This allows for the development of design aids that are non-procedural and more readily manipulated by the user trying to accomplish a design task. HyperMedia allows for the easy inclusion of many different types of data, such as design charts and graphs, into the tool that are normally difficult to include in design tools programmed with more conventional programming languages. This paper explores the development of a computer aided design tool for the design of a single stage gear box using the development HyperCard® environment and the HyperTalk® programming language. The resulting program provides a user friendly interface, the ability to handle several kinds of design information including graphic and textual, and a non-procedural design tool to help the user design simple, one stage gear boxes. Help facilities in the program make it suitable for undergraduate instruction in a machine elements design course.

To minimize the influence of experiential factor and guarantee the software quality from the design phase, with the aid of unified modeling language (UML), an object-oriented design method for PLC program is presented. With UML as design tool, class diagram and state machine diagram are chosen respectively to describe the static structure and dynamic behavior of the PLC based control system, and PLC ladder diagram is acquired from state machine diagram subsequently. With the combination of object-oriented technology, UML and classic PLC design technology, the software reliability of PLC based control system is promoted, and the application area of object-oriented technology and UML is extended.

In this paper, a powerful, user-friendly parachute design and performance analysis software (PDPA) is introduced. This software provides researchers a convenient and efficient parachute design tool. The functions such as parachute structure design, material selection, performance analysis, calculation verification, view display, document output, can be achieved. PDPA can be used for all types parachute design (flat circular parachute, ring-sail parachute, etc.) except parafoil, and combine the first stage parachute with main parachute to make up of a parachutes system. As a result, six types of performance plots, two structure figures, and three types of documents can be obtained. These remarkable features make the software more practical.

AbstractAn object-oriented medical database management system is presented for a typical cardiologic center, facilitating epidemiological trials. Object-oriented analysis and design were used for the system design, offering advantages for the integrity and extendibility of medical information systems. The system was developed using object-oriented design and programming methodology, the C++ language and the Borland Paradox Relational Data Base Management System on an MS-Windows NT environment. Particular attention was paid to system compatibility, portability, the ease of use, and the suitable design of the patient record so as to support the decisions of medical personnel in cardiovascular centers. The system was designed to accept complex, heterogeneous, distributed data in various formats and from different kinds of examinations such as Holter, Doppler and electrocardiography.
