An Integration Framework of Product Design Knowledge Oriented to Collaborative Design

Abstract

During the process of mechanical product design, it is difficult for designer to obtain the required knowledge accurately. Through analyzing knowledge requirements of collaborative design, as well as the close relationship of knowledge with knowledge, business and people, we presents a new knowledge integration patterns and mechanism oriented to product collaboration design. Then according to the characteristics of knowledge integration system for collaborative design, a knowledge integration system framework oriented to product collaboration design is presented. Finally we develop a prototype system of knowledge integration supporting product collaboration design.
