Abstract
The task of the pre-processor is to produce a neutral file from the information in a CAD system data base. The data base is assumed to be consistent with the schema described in “ 5. The CAD*I reference model specification” on page 43 Even though the implementation of the pre-processor will have to depend significantly on the individual CAD system, a basic algorithm for the translation process from the CAD system data base to the neutral file can be formulated: The main purpose of this algorithm is to ensure the the neutral file is strictly sequential.
