Abstract
One of the main drawbacks of the Initial Graphics Exchange Specification (IGES) is the difficulty of accessing and retrieving the required information stored in the IGES files. This is because IGES files created by CAD systems are sequential. This paper describes a module, called “readiges”, which is a general-purpose software package for re-storing IGES files in more conveniently accessible direct-access files. Hence, “readiges” can be used in any research projects that use IGES to integrate CAD systems with other software packages, for example with finite-element packages for mesh-generation purposes or computer-aided process-planning systems.
