Data model transformation in CAD system for multi-view modeling

This paper describes multi-view modeling and data model transformation for the modeling. We have proposed a reference model of CAD system generation, which can be applied to various domain-specific languages. However, the current CAD system generation cannot integrate data of multiple domains. Generally each domain has its own view of products. For example, in the domain of architectural structure, designers extract the necessary data from the data in architecture design. Domain experts translate one view into another view beyond domains using their own brains. The multi-view modeling is a way to integrate product data of multiple domains, and make it possible to translate views among various domains by computers.
