Abstract
The first part of this paper will describe the limits in terms of both equipment and applications. This will be followed by a brief description of the technical application of computers at Rolls Royce which led up to the work on computer graphics. The main part of the paper is split into three sections describing past, present and future applications in Mechanical Design at Rolls Royce.
