Current State of Development of Computer-Aided Design Systems in the Russian Federation
The purpose of the research presented in the article is to assess the relevance and prospects of research in the field of CAD development. To achieve this goal, the authors set the following problems: statistical data on the public activity in the field of CAD development for the two most popular databases were collected. Based on the methods of statistical analysis and comparison, the data of the international Scopus database, as well as the Russian citation system of RINC, were analyzed. As a result, the main trends in the development of computer-aided design systems have been identified, which lead to the conclusion that the most active studies in this direction are carried out in the United States, China and India, with researchers published 1,750, 1,434 and 745 articles, respectively. At the same time, in the Russian Federation more than 3,000 publications have been published in the area under consideration over the same period of time. This testifies to the existence of an objective problem in the world community's presentation of the results achieved by domestic authors in the field of CAD development caused by the language barrier.
