XML-Based Product Information Pyblishing System

Along with the application of computer technology and with the maturity of Internet technology, more and more enterprises publish and introduce their product via Internet. At present the familiar course of action is to make use of settled format on known website to advertise their product. This is a good way for some company that manufacture simple and common product, but-most of product possess various characteristic and function. In this way, specialty and individuality can't stand out, so it is hard to reach the target to advertise the product. On account of market competition increasing continuously, it's very important to take advantage of Internet to set up the fine product impression, in order to enlarge the market. This is the reason why Product Information Publishing System becomes important increasingly.The product information publishing is not only to describe the product with words and data, but also to show the extraordinary. We must find a solution to resolve the problems such as the expression of the product information, the storage and the accessing of the information data. Around these problems, this paper discusses the solution in the Publishing System of the CATIC Modular Jig and Fixture System. The work that writer did shows as below:(l)After analyzing the characteristic of current publishing manner, the writer ascertains the advantage of Internet contrasting with the other manner. And brings forward the function and characteristic that a whole Product Information Publishing System must possess at present.(2)The writer puts forward a structure model of System based on XML and discuss the advantage of the technique in solving the problem coming into being in System.(3)In this paper, the writer discusses the excellent merit of XML which behaved in managing the non-structural data and resolves the problems that how to save the data in XML, how to access the data by DOM, and how to convert the data in database into XML stream.(4)To the specialty of the CATIC Modular Jig and Fixture System like the shape and the dimensional size, the writer discusses how to use the SolidWorks software to make the 3D solid modeling and the mechanical drawing which can express the product information and simulate the process of assembly.(5)Taking the CATIC Modular Jig and Fixture System as an example ofapplication, the writer use the above-mentioned technology to establish the material system of product information publishing which provides the query, 3D interactive view and simulating assembly.Finally, this paper discusses the function and the deficiency of the Product Information Publishing System and brings forward the research direction in future.
