ISO15926Primer_Context
v23 v24 16 16 Transferring information from one storage location to another was cumbersome, but conceptually simple--you would take all the specifications and drawings, sort them into some logical order, perhaps bind them into books, and move them to the new location. Data turnover to the client at the end of a plant design project was similar to the last scene of the movie ''Raiders of the Lost Arc''. In that scene a forklift carried a wooden box down a long aisle of identical wooden boxes and put it on one of the piles. In the real world it sometimes took years for the owner to review all the boxes and categorize the binders of information. 17 17 18 No one really liked this (as in: "I really liked that piece of chocolate cake, may I have another!"), but that was just the way it was. It started to change with computers made their way into the design office. Binders of data sheets gave way to spreadsheets burned onto CDs, graphite pencils gave way to electronic pencils , and rolls of mylar drawings gave way to CAD files burned onto more CDs.18 No one really liked this (as in: "I really liked that piece of chocolate cake, may I have another!"), but that was just the way it was.
