amePLM: a platform providing information provision in engineering
本文介绍了一个基于语义数据模型的开放平台amePLM,该平台通过本体论整合产品生命周期中的分散数据,自动向用户提供合适信息,并支持与现有工程软件系统的信息流连接。
The procedure for the engineering of products and production systems in manufacturing companies is often distributed over several organisational units. The different units involved in these procedures use their respective methods and tools, resulting in silo-like and distributed information and data sources for engineering. In this paper, the open platform amePLM is introduced. This platform is based on a semantic data model. The ontology as explicitly formulated data model allows an integrated view on data and information available in the systems used along the product lifecycle, and the automatic provision of suitable information to the user. Furthermore, this open approach allows the linking of the solution to existing engineering software systems in the sense of a continuous flow of information.
