“…Feature is defined: as special information about the semantics of part of the geometry and topology [4]. For process planning a feature is defined as a geometric form and a set of specification for which a process planning exists and this process is almost independent of the feature of the parts [3].…”

The future of computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) depends on the ability of their two processes to communicate with each other and with intermediate manufacturing database. Therefore, the development of a successful approach to the integration of CAD and CAM will require solution to several fundamental problems in planning and geometric reasoning. The first problem is the interface between CAD and CAM, that automatic feature recognition is an indispensable technique to solve this problem. We address this problem by developing an algorithm, which is considered an effective approach to extraction and of hybrid manufacturing features of symmetrical parts. The developed algorithm is based on the syntactic pattern primitive concept supported by production rule technique. This approach is considered a powerful tool applied to feature recognition field for symmetrical parts.

“…Usher and Fernandes (1996) divided the dynamic process planning to the static phase and the dynamic phase. Baker and Maropoulos (2000) defined architecture to enable the vertical integration of tooling considerations from early design to process planning and scheduling. The architecture was based on a five-level tool selection procedure, which was mapped to a time-phased aggregate, management and detailed process-planning framework.…”

Traditionally, process planning and scheduling for parts were carried out in a sequential way, where scheduling was done after process plans had been generated. Considering the fact that the two functions are usually complementary, it is necessary to integrate them more tightly so that performance of a manufacturing system can be improved greatly. In this paper, we present a review of the reported research in Integrated Process Planning and Scheduling (IPPS), discuss the extent of applicability of various approaches and suggest some future research trends.

Decision support system (DSS) is a well-established research and development area. Traditional isolated, stand-alone DSS has been recently facing new challenges. In order to improve the performance of DSS to meet the challenges, research has been actively carried out to develop integrated decision support systems (IDSS). This paper reviews the current research efforts with regard to the development of IDSS. The focus of the paper is on the integration aspect for IDSS through multiple perspectives, and the technologies that support this integration. More than 100 papers and software systems are discussed. Current research efforts and the development status of IDSS are explained, compared and classified. In addition, future trends and challenges in integration are outlined. The paper concludes that by addressing integration, better support will be provided to decision makers, with the expectation of both better decisions and improved decision making processes
