| Advanced Software Applications Ltd. | | | Company Name: | Advanced Software Applications Ltd. | | Short Name: | ASA | | Type of Business: | CAD | | Summary: | DIAMOND - CAD for the proffesional | | Description: | ASA is a Cambridge based Software House with more than twenty years
presence in the CAD arena. The company has built up an enviable reputation
for delivering reliable, innovative products suitable for a wide range of
engineering disciplines. Great effort has been dedicated over the past years
to making CAD systems faster, more appealing and easier to operate.
Unfortunately, much less attention has been devoted to the functionality they
offer. Furthermore, in several areas, system functionality has often been
sacrificed for the wrong reasons. It is surprising, but never the less true, that
some typical early 80's products offered more, in terms of geometric and
design facilities, than many better known systems currently in use. This
refers to the general purpose, low cost systems, not to the more expensive
engineering software or products developed for specialised applications. ASA
was established in order to overcome these limitations, produce CAD
products that use the computer much more efficiently, and offer top level
software at an affordable price. Its main objective was to create
an "intelligent" CAD system, capable of contributing to design processes as
well as draughting tasks. The aim was to achieve all this without imposing the
extra burden of complex operational requirements on the system operators.
There seems to be little doubt that in the future the power and sophistication
of all CAD systems will increase, with design rather than draughting
becoming the more dominant factor. Similar transitions have already
occurred in other areas, and the CAD market is certain to follow. ASA
happened to be among the first software houses to join this trend, and
consequently DIAMOND, our CAD system, can be described as the first in the
next, more advanced, generation of Computer Aided Design products.
DIAMOND is tomorrow's CAD system - available today!
DIAMOND is an advanced CAD system suitable for drafting, design, detailing
and database management. It incorporates state of the art functionality,
including variable and associative geometry and parameterised part (block)
definitions. It is a machine independent system, currently available under a
variety of operating systems. DIAMOND contains utilities which are part of
the basic system and not add-ons to be charged for. These include reinforced
concrete and structural steelwork detailing, portal frame and staircase design
and ground modelling. ASA also provide a unique, personalised support
service which makes our users feel valued and secure. This second to none
support is supplied by the system originators, not through a third party
