Abstract
The evolution of computer languages has played a crucial role in the advancement of modern computational technologies, with significant contributions to fields, such as Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM). Computer languages provide the essential tools to communicate between human users and machine systems, enabling the automation of design and manufacturing processes. This review explores the development and classification of computer languages, highlighting their impact on CAD and CAM systems. The paper traces the historical progression of computer languages, from early assembly and machine languages to high-level programming languages, like C++ and Python, which have enabled more intuitive interfaces and sophisticated functionalities in design and manufacturing processes. The review also discusses domain-specific languages (DSLs), which have emerged as a solution to the unique needs of CAD and CAM. Furthermore, the paper investigates the integration of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and other advanced technologies within CAD/CAM systems, and explores how these will shape the future of computer languages. The paper concludes with insights into the challenges and opportunities in the evolving landscape of CAD/CAM systems and the role that future developments in computer languages will play in shaping manufacturing industries worldwide.
