Abstract

This paper deals with a methodology approach to object-oriented data and knowledge sharing for concurrent part design and process planning. CE server, a special application, interfaces, dynamic data and knowledge records, and logic model for expressing part/process-planning data and knoweledges are presented. Here, activity-based solving logic is the keypoint of realizing data and knowledge sharing. ISO 10303 is referred to and EXPRESS language is used for modelling a logic model which is composed of four units of functionality. With the help of mapping mechanism of ONTOS database system, physical schemata are generated. The correspondent interfaces can be realized by means of using clear text encoding of exchange structure specified by ISO 10303 Part 21. CE server is just used for generating a special application, scheduling it, and sharing the dynamic data and knowledges related to a designed part during the whole procedure of concurrent part design and process planning. At last, conclusions are given.
