Abstract
AbstractCurrent works on distributive and collaborative CAD systems often focus on collaborative request submitting, but not distributively executing. A new approach to integrating Grid Computing into Collaborative CAD system is proposed in this paper. A prototype system GridCAD based on this approach is implemented with Web Services based Grid Computing technology. XML/SOAP is adopted as the communications mechanism between Server and Clients. The Session Manager provides the solution of validity maintenance of product models under collaborative environments. In particular, as the core module, Task Manager enables GridCAD to dynamically split complex operations and to distributively perform subtasks. GridCAD also guarantees interoperability on heterogeneous systems so that different types of systems can communicate smoothly and perform the computation much faster than on a single machine.
