Product Configuration Using Object Oriented Grammars
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a technique for product configuration modelling based on object-orientation and attribute grammars. The technique allows efficient interactive configurator tools to be generated for specified product families. Additional benefits include a high degree of checkability, early validation, readability, and reusability. The technique is particularly aimed at mass-customization products and an example concerning the mechanical configuration of plate heat exchangers is used to demonstrate its benefits.

An Intuitive Tool for Constraint Based Grammars
A lot of recent linguistic theories are feature-based and heavely rely upon the concept of constraint. Several authors have pointed out the similitude existing between the representation of the features on featurebased theories and the notions of objects or frames. Oriented object configuration allows us to deal with these modern grammars. We propose here a systematic translation of the concept...
متن کاملSolving Object-oriented Configuration Scenarios with ASP
The main configuration scenarios occurring in the domain of technical products and systems are consistency checking, completing a partial configuration, reconfiguration of an inconsistent configuration and finding the best knowledge base for future reconfigurations. This paper presents OOASP a framework for the description of object-oriented product configurators using answer set programming an...
متن کاملObject-Orientation in Graph-Based Design Grammars
The ongoing digital transformation in industry applies to all product life cycle’s stages. The design decisions and dimensioning carried out in the early conceptual design stages determine a huge part of the product’s life cycle costs (LCC). The automation of the conceptual design phase promises therefore huge gains in terms of LCC. Design grammars encode design processes in production systems ...
متن کاملObject - Oriented Attribute Grammars
This paper introduces object-oriented attribute grammars. These can be characterized as a notation for all classes of attribute grammars. Based on a subtype relation between grammar rules, inheritance of attributes and attribute computations are defined. With this approach, attributes local to grammar rules and the elimination of chain rules are possible without any special constructs. We prese...
متن کاملAdopting Meta-modelling for ITU-T Languages: Language Tool Prototypes as a by-Product of Language Specifications
Grammars have been used to describe computer languages since the age of the first programming languages. But the kind of languages that we use in modern engineering has changed drastically over the last decade. Modern computer languages come in a variety of forms and their characteristics demand more from a description technique than grammars can offer. In this paper, we examine two widely diff...
