Mapping between Product Structures

Supported by Computer during the Conceptual Design of Production Machines

  • Chapter
Artificial Intelligence in Design ’98

Abstract

Designing can be modeled by an Artifact Model that describes the artifact to be designed and Design Activities that are performed to create this Artifact Model. The Artifact Model of production machines consists of three correlating product structures. Maintaining a consequent mapping between these structures is time-consuming. This paper describes how this mapping can be described by rules that the Artifact Model must satisfy and how violations can be solved by initiating Design Activities.
