English abstract:
This paper describes the developments of the CUMINCAD database since 1999 when it
was first presented and some statistical information, how the service is being used.
CUMINCAD started as a bibliographic database storing meta information about CAADrelated
publications. Recently, full texts are being added. The process of creation of
electronic copies of papers in pdf-format is described as well as decisions which were
taken in this context. Over the last two years 20.000 users visited CUMINCAD. We present
a brief analysis of their behavior and interaction patterns. This and the forthcoming
possibility of a full-text-search will open up a new perspective for CAAD-research.
