GED: An Interactive Solid Modeling System For Vulnerability Assessments.

Abstract

For many years the production and modification of target descriptions, no matter what method used, has been a slow, labor-intensive procedure. In an effort to improve the response time of target descriptions, the Ballistic Research Laboratory (BRL) has developed an interactive solid modeling system. This system is called the Graphics Editor (GED) and is designed to replace the traditional manual method of production and modification of target descriptions. GED presently applies to the combinatorial geometry (COMGEOM) solid modeling technique. Using GED, The target descriptions are interactively viewed, modified, and constructed with immediate visual feedback at each step. The GED system virtually eliminates explicit numerical input and opens a new dimension in the target description process.
