A Unifying Framework for Version Control in a CAD Environment

Summary: Unifies version creation, naming/binding, manipulation, and change notification for distributed CAD systems. Distinguishes public, sharable versions from private, designer-owned versions via version capabilities, covering semantics and implementation interfaces. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
