Systems and methods for establishing an authenticated and encrypted network connection in a boot protocol, and specifying the boot image to be loaded by a client, are disclosed. A hardware token or other portable medium, such as a USB drive or device, CD, mini-CD, or floppy diskette, is used to store authentication and/or identification information for a server. A client uses the information on the token to authenticate the network server upon initial connection to the network and request a boot image. Furthermore, the client and server may use the authentication information from the token to establish secure communications and mutually authenticate each other.

A method for mapping a two-dimensional image of a physical object onto a computer generated three-dimensional surface defined by a plurality of surface points in a CAD space has the steps of creating a two-dimensional texture image plane of the physical object by taking a photograph of the physical object with a photographic device and converting the photograph into a texture image plane having a plurality of texture image plane points, determining a physical position of the photographic device with respect to the physical object, and transferring the texture image plane onto the three-dimensional surface. The transfer is accomplished by positioning a synthetic camera in the CAD space with respect to the three-dimensional surface according to the physical position of the photographic device, mapping each of the plurality of surface points viewable by the synthetic camera to a corresponding texture image point in the texture image plane, and assigning texture coordinates to each of the plurality of surface points from the corresponding texture image plane point.

A system and method for direct modeling of fillets and draft angles include forming a fillet region having a first transition from a surface feature to the fillet region and a second transition from a base surface to the fillet region while maintaining a predetermined continuity at the first and second transitions. The system and method select (75) a general form of a fillet profile with a single basis function to describe the fillet, apply (76) the fillet profile to either side of a constant central region on the surface feature to form a surface feature profile, and sweep (77) the surface feature profile within the feature boundary to form the fillet region. The present invention allows such fillet regions to be subsequently modified while maintaining the predetermined continuity at the first and second transitions by applying a reparametrization (78) to the basis function to modify the fillet region.

A system utilizing two or more display units with different resolutions are combined such that the geometry of images displayed across the multiple display units is preserved and the image appears to be substantially continuous to a viewer of the image. Compatibility of the sizes of image elements on different display units is achieved by using display unit-specific scaling to compensate for the different pixel sizes on the individual display units.

A method and system for manipulating a three-dimensional object in a computer-aided design (CAD) environment utilizes a force feedback interface. A gravitational sphere is defined around each of the plurality of input parameters of a mathematical model defining a shape, location and orientation of the object. A force is applied to the force feedback interface based on the gravitational spheres and the position of the force feedback interface. An input signal is received from the force feedback interface based on the applied force indicating selection of one of the plurality of input parameters. The selected input parameter can then be edited according to an edit signal generated by the user via the force feedback interface. In addition, the edit signal can be limited according to predetermined constraints via the force feedback interface.

A system and method for design of experiments (DOE) using direct surface manipulation of a mesh model. The method includes the steps of selecting a geometric model in a computer-aided design (CAD) format, converting the geometric model into a mesh model and evaluating the mesh model using a computer-aided engineering (CAE) analysis. The method also includes the steps of determining whether to continue generating the design of experiments response, and modifying a surface of the mesh model by varying a predetermined parameter, wherein the surface is modified using direct surface manipulation (DSM), the mesh model is updated and the updated mesh model is used in continuing generating the design of experiments response, if determined to continue the design of experiments. The method further includes the steps of using the results of the CAE analysis for the design of experiments.
