How future CAD systems looked in 1983

Title: "Future CAD systems"
Author: K. Preiss
Journal: Computer-Aided Design, 15(4), 223-227

This paper presents a rather informal view of what the author considered to be the "changes which are clearly coming". Not surprisingly, the future as portrayed here is rather conservative, merely projecting what was being developed at the moment. The paper is worth reading for a number of reasons, including the common flaws in forecasting the future. How will CAD systems look in 30 years?
