Research And Implementation Of Configuration Management System For A Certain Type Of Aircraft

Configuration management is a kind of management science, it is an important tool for project management and quality management. It aims to develop and produce equipments meeting the requirements and also to provide complete sets of technical information with optimum performance, best efficiency and shortest cycle.Since the 1980s, with the procedure of entering the information age, China's IT has developed rapidly. Today, computer is widely used, and CAD/CAM Tech is spread in many industrial enterprises. China's aviation industry has made certain achievements in the field of information technology which create the conditions for bringing the configuration management based on network technology into aircraft manufacture.The configuration management system is a specific application system to satisfy the needs of the configuration management for a certain type of aircraft which is complex because of the diverse program and small batch of production. The system uses multi-storey based on the Browser / Server model. A lot of network and database technology is used in the system. This article emphasizes the research of core function and key technology for realizing configuration management system for aircraft. The aircraft design information, technical papers, configuration management and aircraft design state are under effective control by this system. The development and application of this system are of important significance to the configuration liquidation, improving modification, production, maintenance and market development for a certain type of series aircraft.
