            <link>http://www.squidoo.com/best-of-autocad</link>
            <description>AutoCAD is the industry leader in 3D CAD design, drafting, modeling, architectural drawing, and engineering software and a best-in-class customizable and extendable CAD application. When released in late 1982, AutoCAD was one of the first CAD programs to run on personal computers, notably the IBM PC.

AutoCAD, by Autodesk, has now been developed into a broad portfolio design related software base to help users visualize, simulate, and analyze real-world performance, making 3D and visualazation process very intuitive and stimulating to learn.

Autodesk has also developed a few vertical programs, for discipline-specific enhancements - AutoCAD Architecture (formerly Architectural Desktop), for example, permits architectural designers to draw 3D objects such as walls, doors and windows, with more intelligent data associated with them, rather than simple objects such as lines and circles.</description>

            <link>http://www.squidoo.com/b-i-m</link>
            <description>Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the process of generating and managing building data during its life cycle. BIM uses three-dimensional, real-time, dynamic building modeling software to increase productivity in building design and construction. The process produces the Building Information Model, which encompasses building geometry, spatial relationships, geographic information, and quantities and properties of building components.

BIM enables a better understanding of a project, better collaboration, and rich visualization. It also helps to save time and money through the avoidance of rework and changes, conflict avoidance and resolution, and increased productivity and efficiency.</description>
