CATIA:
作為一個產品生命周期管理軟體系列，CATIA能輔助工程師進行從產品開發，製造到工程實現的所有設計工作。
CATIA可以通過API來自定義用戶界面。V5版本的界面可以通過Visual Basic 和C++語言進行用戶自定義。
CATIA V5版本擁有強大的基於平面的參數化設計模塊。該模塊是用NURBS作為平面演算法核心，並提供多個帶KBE支持的工作模塊。
V5版本可以和Enovia，Smarteam以及其他計算機輔助工程分析軟體兼容。
Generative Components:
Empowered by computational methods, designers can direct their creativity to deliver inspired sustainable buildings that are freer in form and use innovative materials and assemblies. GenerativeComponents facilitates this by allowing the quick exploration of a broad range of “what-if” alternatives for even the most complex buildings.
This unique generative design software captures and exploits the critical relationships between design intent and geometry. Designs can be refined by either dynamically modeling and directly manipulating geometry, by applying rules and capturing relationships among building elements, or by defining complex building forms and systems through concisely expressed algorithms.
To inform decisions, GenerativeComponents is integrated with building information modeling, analysis, and simulation software, providing feedback on building materials, assemblies, systems performance, and environmental conditions. This integration also ensures that intent becomes reality by enabling designs to accurately and efficiently flow through to detailed production and fabrication.
授權的計算方法，設計人員可以以自由行體和創新的材料已不斷變形的建築提供他們的創造力靈感。 GenerativeComponents可快速的運算，找出複雜建築的假設。
這種獨特的生成設計軟件，可以取得、利用關鍵的設計和幾何關係。不僅動態模型設計可以精化和擷取建築元素的關係，也可用幾何算法簡單地表現複雜的建築形式和系統。
GenerativeComponents進行集成建築信息建模，分析，仿真軟件，提供建材，裝配，系統的性能，環境條件的回應。這種集成還可以準確和有效地確保詳細的生產和製造，使設計更趨近於現實。
