Abstract:
-
The various activities of the National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST) in the development of a Product Data Exchange
Standard (PDES) will be discussed. The NIST activities will be
described in terms of the unique position that the agency has in the
area of standards and technology development in the United States.
The NIST has an active role in participating in the formal development
of the PDES standard. In addition, NIST is engaged in research &
development programs involving information technologies necessary for
implementing PDES and engineering technologies that make use of
product data. Specific applications such as mechanical part
fabrication are being used to provide a testbed for the validation and
verification of PDES. The paper addresses how PDES can be used to
implement needed technologies such as competitiveness. The
combination of PDES implementations with concurrent engineering is
called in this paper "Product Data Driven Engineering."
