AI methods in concurrent engineering
Abstract An AI-based hierarchical framework for concurrent engineering is suggested. It is based on the research carried out on product modelling, interoperability by mapping and matching, activity control, workflow management and information logistics in virtual enterprises and the research done in AI application to conceptual structural design and product information systems for the electronic market. This research has resulted in several prototypes in the past four years. By extrapolating the results achieved in the single prototype areas, this framework is expected to reduce the lead time of briefing, design and constructs to the range of 50 %. The paper is focused on the cognitive architecture in which the AI methods are embedded and the information logistics part with the newly suggested electronic board. The framework has to support object-oriented as well as object-centred, document-centred, process-centred and production-centred working environments with different working cultures. This needs multiple presentation of data, data transformation, data condensation and dedicated Al methods.
