    For the integration of the tasks to be mastered within the product development process it is necessary to take account of non-geometrical information, from design to manufacturing process, alongside geometrical design shape. The introduction of objects as carriers of semantic information leads to the use of features. In the present contribution, a concept and its realization are described that facilitate a flexible definition and computer-internal representation as well as the interpretation of features as semantically endowed objects. Based on the feature model, basic functionalitites for feature processing are introduced, which serve as a common kernel for integrated CAE-Systems.

    Product gestaltung is a complex task which is dependent on the product and related processes. An increasing need for dedicated application systems can be recognized in industry in order to enable the computer integration of the factory. The paper describes three approaches for system architectures to fulfill the demand for flexible integration.

    Krause, F.-L.
    Future generations of CAD systems are expected to offer powerful support for the functional, geometrical and technological description of products. New intelligent simulation techniques, as well as comprehensive information access capabilties will open novel and comfortabel possibilities for product modelling. Subsequently, the result will be a real chance for direct cooperation of human creativity and discernment with artificial abilities of information processing systems to draft analyze technical products. Owing to the availability of novel resources the scope of computer supported actions will increase. Integration of design and technological planning will be possible in future.
