Product Platform Design Services Based On Cloud Computing

Product platform is a key theory in mass customization method, and it can satisfy diversely customer needs at high efficiency service and reduce enterprise product development costs. Enterprises have set up product platforms that only use internal resources to develop products. Single product platform can't deal with more complex customer demands because globalization market from relative stability changing into dynamic changeable and product diversity intensified and appear the demand of integrating internal and external resources manufacturing resources. So it has to establish an open product platform system to support product platform collaborative development between and get resources transparently, realize the loose coupling cooperation between enterprises and task orientation resources dynamic reconfiguration.This dissertation explores the product platform development routing and design ability service and resources virtualization and other key technologies in the migration process of product platform to cloud platform in the background of computing clouds technology and product platform theory. It proposes the product platform design service architecture based on cloud computing and its design service modes and the related key technology to the study, including product platform resources virtualization in cloud computing environment and product family design ability services technology and product platform cloud data center retrieval technology, etc.This dissertation mainly concern with the following contents:(1) It proposes product family design development process two-dimensional model based on product platform after analyzing product platform development mode. And it researches the product family function modeling mechanism and construct multidimensional product family function model based on function decomposition, and discuss product family structure building methods.(2) According to information technology development on the transformation of the production system requirements and production service concept, it puts forward three kinds of product platform design cloud service mode, including product design and simulation cloud service mode, virtual manufacturing enterprises dynamic alliance collaboration cloud service mode and public manufacturing platform cloud service mode. And it proposes the product platform design service architecture based on cloud computing, including the concept model and physical model and operation model and technical realization model, formed a complete framework of construction scheme.(3) It puts forward product family model digital description technology after researching product family model structure, one is product family multi-dimensional information integration model for cloud services and its data structure, and the other is product family virtualization description model and its virtualization methods.(4) It puts forward product platform design ability concept model after researching the basic elements of product platform design ability based on cloud computing. And it research product platform design service ability method, including propose product platform design process service granularities method and product platform design ability service portfolio model, and analyze product platform design ability services portfolio methods.(5) It puts forward product platform cloud data center resources retrieval process after researching product platform cloud data center management system structure, and research case-based retrieval method in product platform. After researching cloud data center data push technology, it proposes product platform resource retrieval information push technology based on cloud agent.Finally, it develops a prototype system to prove the architecture and algorithm and method in cloud computing environment for product platform design services.
