“…Extending the concept of CAPP pre-processing, work is under way to link Edinburgh's agent-driven design system to a holonic manufacturing system developed at the University of Nancy [28]. This will demonstrate that a properly validated model can be transferred directly from the design environment into suitable manufacturing holons for production.…”

Extensions to mechanical feature-based design and design for manufacturability are presented that adopt the increasingly recognized multiagent paradigm. This approach uses autonomous agents to implement each form feature inside the model being created, thus leading to the creation of a new type of active product model. Designers add new features to their designs by populating a living community of agents that construct the model, therefore creating an active product program as opposed to the traditional passive product data.Feature agents are self-scheduled autonomous entities, able to exchange data with one another and with a degree of self-control over their own geometric data. Using simple manufacturability criteria, each feature agent endlessly applies its embedded knowledge to ensure its own local manufacturability. A global behaviour emerges from the agents' activity inside the model that optimizes the global manufacturability of the component being designed.

“…The design department provides the information for manufacture, therefore an efficient communication is necessary between these. Some works have been developed in this context, for example, the management of information in which a database is in use for nodes connected to the CIM (Computer-integrated manufacturing) system with the objective of administrate the product's life cycle based on the ISO norm 10303 called STEP (STandar for Exchange of Product model data) [2]. G. Peng et al proposes the visualization for the check and the maintenance of products using virtual reality mounted on a web page where the different departments can modify the project [3].…”

This work is about an application that has been development with a client-server architecture to visualize CAD files used in a manufacture department, it is orientated to mobile devices based on Apple's mobile operating system (iOS). The client application was designed and implemented using the IDE development: XCode (Apple's property), in the other hand the server application was based on the infrastructure offered by the data repository (Dropbox), these data are consulted through its urls directions lodged and organized in database tables designed using PostgreSQL.The objective was to create an intuitive application easy to be used with the finality that the different departments related to the manufacture could access it at the same time by its own mobile device, and make possible to use the models and the product information with its particular proposes.

“…A product data management system (PDMS) stores and manages complete information of all its products and related activities to ensure a concurrent engineering environment, which facilitates easier and more efficient product development. Currently, an important issue in enterprise integration is the implementation of information systems that facilitate concurrent engineering (Wu et al 1992, Reddy et al 1993, Chaxel et al 1997, Chen and Hsiao 1997. Together with widespread computer network applications and standard product data representations, PDMS enables an enterprise to conduct its business activities in a more efficient way (Czerwinski andSivayoganathan 1994, Gu andChan 1995).…”

Currently, the challenge of implementing a product data management system (PDMS) is how to ensure system integration and product data exchange is shared between heterogeneous systems. In this research, an integrated data models and implementation approach for PDMS is proposed that uses the STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product) model data standard and schema as proposed by the Object Management Group (OMG). The objective of migrating these data schemas is to propose a standardized product data management (PDM) data schema that fulfils its functionality, including product structure management, configuration management, document management, workflow/process management, effectivity management, and engineering change management. The PDM-related data schema that is defined in the STEP standard, the PDM schema, and the Joint Product Data Management (JPDM) Enablers is identified, discussed, compared and migrated in this paper. To solve the barrier of product data exchange and sharing within and between enterprises, a robust and standardized PDM data schema fulfilling the functionality of PDM can be constructed with the proposed migrated data models. The implementation issues of a STEP-based system via these data schema are also discussed. With the proposed approach and architecture, the integrated data models fulfilling the functionality of PDM for PDMS, as well as the methods of implementing STEP-based PDMS, have been demonstrated.
