Onshape is a web based CAD system. Aside from the fact that it is web based, it is no different than any other CAD system. CADWOLF is a proposal to do engineering completely differently. It will have a CAD system that is indeed web based, but that CAD will be linked to the mathematics that define the system. In other words, right now an engineer designs his stuff in Excel/Matlab/etc, documents the results in Word or PDF and then does a CAD model in ProE/Catia/Onshape. None of those things are linked.

CADWOLF will link all of these things. This will change the amount of time it takes to design/redesign large systems from months for several engineers to seconds on a computer. It will let managers pull down and see real time information on weight/status/cost, and a number of other parameters.

Onshape can be used as one facet of engineering. CADWOLF will redefine the engineering workflow.
