The purpose of this study is to observe the teaching method and cognition process in using the PAD, Lectra and Investronica pattern CAD system. It is necessary to gather information about apparel pattern CAD to enable clothing and textile educators to efficiently incorporate CAD into their curricula and to provide more substantial information. Interviews and questionnaires were used in the research and twenty four questionnaires were used for data analysis. The results of this study are as follows: 1) Students thought that new technology such as apparel pattern CAD is important in the apparel industry, and they have a positive vision toward such innovation. 2) Student who study harder during in CAD class worked easily of all PAD, Investronica and Lectra system. 3) The most preferred teaching method is to small group instruction by the instructor and then having feedback from the instructor. 4) Students realized that they needed to take prerequisites subjects like clothing construction. 5) The most interesting step is the pattern grading system and the least interesting but easiest step is digitize for patterns in the Investronica system.

The purpose of this study was to investigate automatic manipulating functions of dart of CAD system, and to classify the dart of women's front bodice. The results from this study: 1.3 CAD systems, were compared in automatic manipulating functions of dart. Gerber system & Investronica system were based on the pivot-method of dart manipulating, Yuka system was based on the slash-method. 2. It is classified and made a dart-design chart with using darts, which were as examples related to dart manipulating in text & reference of the pattern design. 3. In case of education of dart manipulation, the classified dart-design chart provides variations of a basic pattern through dart manipulation.

The purpose of this study was to suggest the data of base for automated underwear manufacture by analyzing the technology of the automated underwear manufacturing facilities in the area of Jeonbuk with a focus on Jeonju and Iksan. The case study samples were 6 underwear firms. The results were as follows : 1. Automated underwear manufacturing systems in the area of JeonBuk introduced over the entire period between 1990 and 1997. Most of Their production type was multi-kind and small-quantity production. 2. They were using Gerber, Assyst, Lectra, Microdynamics and Investronica systems as the CAD/CAM system, of which the Gerber system was mostly used by them. 3. In the stage of production planning and in the stage of preparation for production, most of them realized automation, but in the stage of main production, every firm did not realize automation. In most cases, they used both the stage of mechanization and the stage of unit process automation.
