Abstract
Industry recognizes the central importance of managing and sharing CAD data within the organization, and powerful Product Data Management (PDM) systems have been developed to address this need However, engineering schools have been slow to adopt PDM technology, and student design teams typically rely on a variety of ad hoc approaches to manage shared CAD data. To address the PDM requirements of student projects, the University of Western Ontario acquired and deployed PDMWorks in January 2006. PDMWorks is a midrange PDM system for SolidWorks. Installation and administration of this midrange product are very straightforward, and its tight integration with SolidWorks makes PDMWorks easy to use. However, PDMWorks is best suited to relatively small workgroups, and does not scale easily to large numbers of users.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
