- Abstract
- A typical product development team working in global manufacturing and marketing environment is often
dispersed all over the world. Such a team may need a tool to aid effective communication and
cooperation among the work groups. A 3 dimensional STEP geometry browsing system has been
developed on the Intemet and its associated Web. A major issue in implementing the system is the
efficiency of computation and communication time of 3D visualization models. An adaptive subdivision
method is developed to convert STEP data into a VRML visualization model. The method has been
implemented and experimented, and the results show a substantial improvement in computational
performance.
