Abstract
In manufacturing companies there is a wide spectrum of software systems that operate with product data. It seems obvious that the interoperability and ability of data exchange, based on native formats of each system, is not possible. Fortunately there are a lot of data formats, such as STEP, VRML, XML-based and many others that help to solve the problem. However the communication and the utilization of communication channels are not so much unified and systematically used. We assume that the problem could be solved by the simple and unified communication method, based on the modern internet-based approach. Its development is the aim of our research. This method should enrich the existing methods of communication, not replace them. Our method is based on TCP/IP protocols and XML web services.
