An Object-Oriented Representation of Electromagnetic Knowledge

Summary from only given, as follows. Fundamental concepts and components in electromagnetics as well as modern field analysis techniques such as finite element analysis objects. For instance, element data and node data required by a FEM program are the instance variables where as the numerical routines are the methods in an object that represent FEM i.e. encapsulation. This approach was taken in [1]. There the device, equipotentials. zero work lines and heuristics were represented as objects. This is an unified way to represent information irrespective of their kind. In other words it does not matter whether an item is a device or a piece of executable code. The CLOS is used as the programming language.
