Enriching Step-Based Product Information Models to Support Product Life-Cycle Activities
<p>The representation and management of product information in its life-cycle requires standardized data exchange protocols. Standard for Exchange of Product Model Data (STEP) is such a standard that has been used widely by the industries. Even though STEP-based product models are well defined and …

Functional and Behavioral Product Information Representation and Consistency Validation for Collaboration in Product Lifecycle Activities
<p>Information models that represent the function, assembly and behavior of artifacts are critical in the conceptual development of a product and its evaluation. Much research has been conducted in this area; however, existing models do not relate function, behavior and structure in a comprehensive …
