Abstract
Development of industrial techniques is closely related to the application of computers in engineering design, integrated computer-aided design (ICAD) technology has evolved as a new generation of design techniques. It also paved the way for implementing computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM). However, the key issue to accomplish the objective is conceptual design automation (Wang et al., 1990).
