Title
Feature-based Technology for Collaborative Product Design
Abstract
To establish efficient means for collaborative product design, feature-based modelling tools are needed, which provide a high-level semantic communication to integrate diverse engineering with design activities. This article describes an approach to integrated product data and process modelling based on a feature-based representation, called the Intermediate Model. The structure, content and external services of an intermediate modelling server and its embedding within a collaborative engineering environment is outlined.
