Workshop on Features in Design and Manufacturing; Los Angeles, California; February 1988

本次研讨会将讨论设计中的功能问题， 制造业 可以给出特征来描述物理和 设计的功能方面，或者可以从设计中提取， 描述制造过程。 特征之间的关系， 设计和制造将从以下几点进行描述： 视图包括1）设计生成，2）产品模型，3）设计 数据库，表示和显示，4）设计分析，5） 6）工艺规划和装配。 讲习班 将侧重于有关识别特征的问题， 他们严格的形式特征，以及这些应用程序 设计和计算方法中的描述 制造业 当前关于特征所起作用的问题 在设计和制造的自动化将得到解决， 未来研究的方向将被概述。 讲习班特别及时，因为 在实体建模、数据库和 语法技巧表明设计和制造 可以通过计算来实现。 有人认为， 自动化设计和制造将大大推进， 将研究人员聚集在一起， 不同的设计和制造领域分享想法。 讲习班计划于1988年初在哥伦比亚大学举行。 加州洛杉矶。

This workshop will address the issue of features in design and manufacturing. Features can be given to describe physical and functional aspects of designs or can be extracted from designs to describe manufacturing processes. The relationships among features, designs, and manufacturing will be described from several points of view including 1) design generation, 2) product models, 3) design databases, representation and display, 4) design analysis, 5) manufacturing, and 6) process planning and assembly. The workshop will focus on problems concerning the identification of features, their rigorous formal characterization, and the application of these descriptions in computational approaches to design and manufacturing. Current questions concerning the role features play in the automation of design and manufacturing will be address and directions for future research will be outlined. The workshop is especially timely owing to a growing number of formal results in areas such as solid modelling, databases, and grammatical techniques that suggest that design and manufacturing can be approached computationally. It is felt that the goal of automated design and manufacturing will be significantly advanced by bringing together researchers with a formal point of view from different design and manufacturing areas to share ideas. The workshop is planned for early 1988 at the University of California Los Angeles.
