Object-Based Management System for Computational Mechanics Software

A lot of software have constructed in the field of “computational mechanics”. Reusability are not considered in most of the program codes. Therefore, even if the program codes are open to the public, we cannot reuse, extend them because they are too complex and big. Software is said to be “intelligent” property. Then reusability, modulability and extendibility of the software should be considered in computational mechanics. The first duty to researchers is that their own fruits are open to the public. Therefore, it is very important to realize “environment” for common use about computational mechanics software. Object-Oriented Technologies help us with reusability, modulability and extendibility of software
