AbstractThis paper addresses the issues concerning interfacing multiple modelers and attributes for analysis and visualization. A system is described that: (i) allows queries and modifications of the topology and geometry that defines a geometric model, (ii) abstracts the modeler's functionality needed to associate analysis information, (iii) provides a hierarchical attribute association model, and (iv) gives a graphical user interface to both the geometric modeler abstraction and attribute management system. Finally graphical issues relating to performance, portability and flexibility of different workstation environments are discussed.
