Abstract
Designers should know CAD tool/license information such as available number of licenses or tools, types, and configuration methods to use CAD tools properly in their group. Usually, this information is provided by managers who administrate CAD tool and license servers in the specific design group. In the previous CAD tool/licenses sharing methods, designers have to get CAD tool/license information manually and setup the environments with their own hands. n a new designer comes into the design working group, the designer wastes unnecessary design time, because of these processes. As a result, designer's poductivity and utilization of CAD tools will decrease Besides, managers also waste their time and effort, since they should provide CAD tool/license information manually to each designer. In this paper, we present an automated scheme to share CAD tool/license information based on directory service. The proposed methods automate the communication processes between managers and designers that minimze unnecessary time to share CAD information. In addition, as this system maintains the consistency of CAD information automatically that remove the repeated work of managers and designers, it improves the enciency of sharing. Besides, it automates the license configuration steps using prof(y Last, we offer Executable Proxy which is proper for thin CAD application. We believe this scheme will reduce designers and managers' time and effort as well as maximize the utilization of CAD tools.
