General purpose computers in real time

Description: I see three main trends in the use of general purpose computers in real time. The first is more processing power. The second is the use of higher speed interconnects between computers (allowing more data to be delivered to the processors). The third is the use of larger programs running in the computers. Although there is still work that needs to be done, I believe that all indications are that the online need for general purpose computers should be available for the SCC and LHC machines. 2 fig… more

A 3-D measurement system using object-oriented FORTH

Description: Discussed is a system for storing 3-D measurements of points that relates the coordinate system of the measurement device to the global coordinate system. The program described here used object-oriented FORTH to store the measured points as sons of the measuring device location. Conversion of local coordinates to absolute coordinates is performed by passing messages to the point objects. Modifications to the object-oriented FORTH system are also described. 1 ref.

OMNI development of an engineering product data management system

Description: The increasing use of computers in engineering design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) has been accompanied by the need to effectively manage the data produced, and the applications that produce the data. This paper presents an integrated engineering product data management system (PDMS) called OMNI. OMNI manages the product data, and controls access to the various CAD/CAM applications used to produce engineering data. OMNI is based on a relational data base (RTIRIM) and a FORTRAN interface between … more
