Abstract
Design-manufacturing integration is one of the most signicant contemporary trends in new product development (NPD) for manufacturing enterprises. Exploring the implementation capability of manufacturing enterprises through the assessment of design-manufacturing integration is an important and crucial step for determining what kind of design-manufacturing integration is appropriate for manufacturing enterprises. However, quantitative evaluation of design-manufacturing integration is rather limited so far. In this paper, we view design-manufacturing integration as a complex adaptive system (CAS), an effective evaluation method for design-manufacturing integration is proposed. To classify the manufacturing enterprises into which can quickly adapt to the environment or not, support vector machine is utilized. Selecting relevant features among the features available for classification of was also dealt with. The experiment results demonstrate the proposed method is useful for Design-manufacturing integration quantitatively.
