Abstract
A product configuration method based on a product model is introduced. Super-variable of component and independent principle are introduced and then a product model based on them is constructed. According to the source and function of the configuration rule, an organizational method of rules with some categories and levels is introduced and the steps of construction of the rule base are also put forward. Based on the product model and rule base, two configuration processes are introduced. Finally, a computer configuration example is given.
