Individual Research contributions to Group Project

Research on AutoCAD's Rendering Feature

~ Proposed and pitched my technology of AutoCAD to my group mates. We debated among the three technologies and decided on AutoCAD as the technology we are going to work on.
~ Read through various articles and journals on Autocad's issues and linked it with my own personal reader response to fixate on a problem statement for our group project.

Research on AutoCAD's Collaboration Feature

~ After discussing with my groupmates, we felt that needed a change in the direction we approach and decided to work on AutoCAD's collaboration issues as our problem statement.
~ Felt Wen Cong's problem statement is the most viable and went on to futher research about AutoCAD's collaboration users.

Research on BIM's Collaboration Feature
