A framework for industrial layout generators
W. Bower, Carl Seaquist, Wayne H. Wolf · 1990
The MACLOG layout generator set is built on an object-oriented framework. Most frameworks are built around the hierarchy of module types. We found the service hierarchy—the types of information provided to the user by the generator—made the framework and generators easier to design and modify. This paper describes the MACLOG framework and details our experience with framework structure.
