The research will focus on the geometric and                               computational issues that arise in the design and                               implementation of integrated, programmable (i.e., flexible) and                 highly automated systems for the design, analysis,                              manufacturing, inspection and assembly of discrete goods.                       Important capabilities not available in current solid modelers                  will be developed, and novel applications of solid modeling to                  design and production will be investigated.                                          Two high-priority topics will be addressed: (1) modeling                   and reasoning about geometric uncertainty, and (2) automatic                    extraction of machinable features from geometric models.                        Additional, lower-priority research topics are (3)                              constraint-based mechanical design, (4) incorporation of                        Minkowski operations in solid modelers, (5) algorithms for                      hardware implementation, (6) conversion of boundary                             representations to constructive solid geometry, and (7) modeler                 support for  mobile robot navigation.
