The next conference call is at the regular times (4:30 France, 3:30
UK, 10:30 Eastern USA and 7:30 Western USA) on Wednesday March 28
(see below for connection information). The proposed agenda is as
follows:<br>
<br>
1.Connecting Modelica to STEP - Function (Modelica), Form (STEP) and
Fit (STEP-NC).<br>
<br>
Research projects are connecting product function/requirement
descriptions in Modelica to product model descriptions in STEP by
using solution space evaluation engines to compute design parameters
that are fed into parametric modelers to create STEP models (today)
and STEP-NC models (future). <br>
<br>
The STEP models can be large, so to facilitate modular data
management they are divided into multiple STEP files where there is
one file for each component and one file for each assembly. <br>
<br>

<br>
Should we develop a similar organization for STEP-NC projects so
that there can be one file for each executable?<br>
<br>
2. CAM Data Exchange<br>
