  abstract =     "This bibliography primarily contains references to
                 research in \begin{enumerate} \item automated feature
                 recognition from geometric models, and \item
                 applications of form features in mechanical engineering
                 design, group technology coding, process planning,
                 assembly planning, tolerancing and related areas.
                 \end{enumerate} Since there has been an enormous volume
                 of work in these areas in recent years I have not been
                 able to keep the bibliography up to date, but it does
                 provide a fairly comprehensive coverage of early and
                 seminal papers and theses. From time to time I add new
                 entries of publications that seem to me to be
                 especially significant, but I make no attempt to add
                 everything that appears on features-related topics. A
                 few references are included to papers concerning
                 features in the context of robot vision, but the
                 bibliography is not intended to be exhaustive in this
                 field. Coverage is much more complete in the areas of
                 robotics and kinematics generally as they affect
                 assembly modelling and tolerancing theory. Some papers
                 on tools for concurrent engineering are included.",
