Almost of the pattern nesting for materials cutting plan, in footwear cutting process, is dependent on worker's experience. Thus, it is different from the real cutting results in degree of worker's skill. Therefore, it needs to develope the auto nesting systems that are easier for novice to use and fit for the domestic circumstances, This paper describes the development of auto pattern nesting system for optimal cutting yield of footwear materials. The system developed in this study is composed of interrelated modules for materials information control, nesting simulation, utility and the architecture of system, the functions of each module, and the information processing procedures of each function are discussed.
