Abstract
A fundamental requirement in any CAD system is the possibility of defining a useful model to represent the behavior of real world systems {1}. The resolution of complex problems in the technical domains requires the use of hierarchical and multi-view models {2,3,4}. At each level of abstraction different sub-problems have to be solved; therefore the resolution technique consists essentialy of a problem reduction approach. In the first section of our chapter we deal with a general structure for model, which can be summarized as consisting of different model views, each view being represented at a number of distinct levels of abstraction. With this type of structure, complex applications may be spread over different levels of abstraction and different model views. We call this kind of design the multi-view/multi-level modelling approach.
