R&D On Knowledge Management System For Collaborative Design

With the support from the project of National 863 High-Tech R&D Program (No. 2003AA414310): Knowledge engineering and knowledge management technology for enterprise knowledge innovation and the project of Zhejiang prov. great science & technology: Research on product design and production management information system for fast response customer demand. The research on theories, methods, key technologies, tools and system of knowledge management for collaborative design was done comprehensively and deeply. The research achievements were put into practice combined with enterprise informationization engineering project of an automobile parts manufacturing.Chapter 1 is the overall introduction. Firstly, the development background and importance of knowledge management and collaborative design were introduced. Then, the research evolvement of knowledge management and collaborative design was reviewed and analyzed. On the basis of summarizing their shortages, that knowledge management should be integrated with concrete business process was proposed, and knowledge management requirements for collaborative design were analyzed. Finally, the goal and main content of KMSFCD was introduced, and architecture of this dissertation was given.The matching of knowledge management mode and business process, characteristics and relations of knowledge management "technology-society" mode, research content and supporting technology were introduced in chapter 2. By the analysis of current knowledge management shortage, its' requirements for collaborative design, and relations of both, the goal of knowledge management for collaborative design was indicated. The conception and content of task level, process level support of knowledge management for collaborative design were proposed. Integrated KMSFCD architecture of both was built. The composing, relations and main content of the architecture were introduced detailedly.The following questions were mainly researched in chapter 3. (1) Relation and difference of data, information and knowledge, knowledge composing of knowledge management for collaborative design; (2) Knowledge expressing methods were compared and selected according to the requirements of knowledge management for collaborative design; (3)The requirements for knowledge in collaborative design...
