ACIS is a kernel developed by Spatial technologies that is used by many
CAD programs (Autocad R13, Aries, PDGS for instance).
The company claims ACIS has become the de-facto standard. Many CAD modelers
 (Pro-E, I-Deas, Catia,CADDS, Unigraphics,..) have their own kernel. ACIS
does, or plans to provide a translator to many of these systems.
