Design work assistance apparatus

A design work assistance apparatus, for guiding design work, sequentially along a process template defining steps of the design work therein, comprising:

• a design work history accumulating means for producing a copy of a process template, which describes work history up to a unit process A therein, and accumulating the process template copied, by relating it to a unit process B, when turning back to the unit process B before the unit process A under working.

• a design work history accumulating means for producing a copy of a process template, which describes work history up to a unit process C therein, and accumulating the process template copied, by relating it to a unit process A, when advancing to the unit process C by jumping over at least one unit process from the unit process under working.
