MPDS4: History, Technology, Cultures & Companies

MPDS, the MEDUSA Plant Design System ( MPDS4 since 2006 then now M4 PLANT), is a suite of plant engineering applications for 2D/3D layout, design, and modeling of process plants, factories, or installations. The system's history is closely tied to the very beginnings of mainstream CAD and the research culture fostered by Cambridge University and the UK…
