20110301919 | MULTI-DIMENSIONAL ARTIFACT ASSEMBLAGE FOR INFRASTRUCTURE AND OTHER ASSETS WITH INTERFACE NODE MEDIATORS - A system and method to compile different types of data from different locations into one reliable assemblage is provided. The assemblage may include an index of information provided to a user. The assemblage may be in the form of a three dimensional (3D) representation of an object, where the 3D representation includes an index and links to more detailed information regarding the object. The 3D representation may be of any object, for example, a body part in the context of medical imaging, or a building in the context of architectural and engineering design. The assemblage may be comprised of 3D and 2D artifacts. The 2D artifact may include 2D vector and raster embellishment in a variety of forms, such as vector graphics, raster graphics from many sources included hand drawn graphics that are scanned, specification documents, texts, cost data from cost databases, data in tabular form, notes, text, dimensions, link icons (links to other media). The 3D artifact may include vector graphics (2D and 3D) including all data obtained through data conversion methods, and “Point clouds” (voxels). | 12-08-2011 |
20110231161 | AUTO-TRANSPOSE REPLICATION - A system and method for auto-transpose replication is provided. Auto-transpose replication may be considered the ability to automatically create copies of a given prototype model. Auto-transpose replication may include receiving a first list of data values and determining a total number of levels of the first list. Auto-transpose may also include creating a rectangularized list, where the rectangularized list is a rectangularized copy of the first list based on the determined total number of levels of the first list. Further, auto-transpose may include creating a return list, detecting an item at the deepest level of the rectangularized list, calculating an index trail of the item, rotating the values in the index trail, and storing the item into the return list according to the rotated index trail. | 09-22-2011 |
20110166831 | MULTI-DIMENSIONAL ARTIFACT ASSEMBLAGE FOR INTRASTRUCTURAL AND OTHER ASSETS WITH INTERFACE NODE MEDIATORS - A system and method to compile different types of data from different locations into one reliable assemblage is provided.

20090231344 | Dynamic selection of update methods - A method in a computer modeling environment having generative component features forming a model is provided. A generative component (GC) feature is created with a method. User input modifying an aspect of the model that affects the GC feature is received. An update method for the GC feature is determined dynamically based on the user input, the properties of the GC feature and input properties of available update methods to obtain a selected update method. The GC feature is updated based on the selected update method to obtain an updated GC feature. The updated GC feature is stored in a computer readable medium. | 09-17-2009 |
