Machines will gradually become programmed using computers which
have the knowledge of how the objects in the world relate to one
another. This book capitalizes on the fact that products which are
manufactured can be designed on the computer and that information
about the product such as its physical shape provide powerful
information to reason about how to develop the process plan for
their manufacture. This book explores the whole aspect of using the
principles of how parts behave naturally to automatically generate
programs that govern how to produce them. The last decade saw
tremendous work on how machines can be programmed to perform a
variety of tasks automatically. Robotics has witnessed the most
work on programming techniques. But it was not until the emergence
of the advanced CAD system as a proper source of information
representation about objects which are to be manipulated by the
robot that it became viable for automated processors to generate
robot programs without human interface. It became possible for
objects to be described and for principles about how they interact
in the world to be developed. The functions which the features
designed into the objects serve for the objects can be adequately
represented and used in reasoning about the manufacturing of the
parts using the robot. This book describes the necessary principles
which must be developed for a robot to generate its own programs
with the knowledge of the world in the CAD system.
