Computer-aided Industrial Design Work Together

In view of the thought about Computer Supported Collaborative works, this dissertation analyzes thoroughly inevitability and feasibility that introducing collaborative work into the field of Computer Aided Industrial Design, and puts forward system architecture of Computer Supported Collaborative Industrial Design under the distributed environment. The collaborative environment for industrial design is made up of Network Commutation ~ Auxiliary Cooperation and Collaborative Control. An applied collaborative environment for collaborative industry design is established through realizing the functions of sub-components with the technology of ActiveX and Delphi. This dissertation demonstrates it feasibility that a Product model will be created by VRML file format and Java 3D. At the same time, according to the hierarchy of VRML files and RDBMS?characteristic, lets the hierarchy and parameters of VRML files, the design and modifying schemes, and the distributions of the design task be stored in RDBMS separately, establishes a Relation Model, and let Product Design,Scheme Evaluating and Information Sharing be come true.
