[ProPro 2.0] - Product-oriented process management - Computer-aided modeling as well as graph-based analysis and visualization of the matrix-based product description

在“面向产品的过程管理”研究项目的第一阶段，提出了一个面向产品开发的过程模型。这将引导开发人员有目的地完成开发过程，并支持产品成熟度的计算和预防性避免迭代。由于产品在使用过程中的行为对顾客来说是至关重要的，因此过程模型不仅关注产品的行为，而且关注产品的特性和属性。该项目的结果表明，在开发过程中，通过基于矩阵的产品描述可以非常有效地模拟和分析不同产品要素(例如，特性、特性、行为)之间的关系。后续项目的总体目标是开发用于计算机辅助建模的方法和信息技术工具，以及对基于矩阵的产品说明中的产品要素进行基于图表的分析和可视化。这一主要目标细分为以下两个子目标。基于矩阵的产品描述的一个主要问题是其非常耗时的手动建模。因此，拟议的后续项目的第一个目标是制定一种方法，通过计算机辅助获取相关数据和信息，以便对基于矩阵的产品说明进行(部分)自动化建模。为此，必须针对包含产品要素的所有文件和文件分析相关的信息技术系统(例如CAD系统)，并必须通过成本效益分析进行评估。在此基础上，必须开发一种通过自动获取基于矩阵的产品描述的几何特征(例如，从CAD模型)来进行计算机辅助建模的概念。其结果是对所有相关产品要素及其关系的基于矩阵的产品描述进行高效和高质量建模的基础。第二个目标是在第一个目标的基础上，(进一步)发展基于矩阵的产品描述的计算机辅助分析和可视化方法。因此，必须识别和(进一步)开发图论中的各种概念和算法，以便为产品开发人员提供有用的基于图形的分析和可视化选项。这意味着所有产品要素及其关系都可以通过计算机辅助工具和算法进行分析和可视化，以实现有效的迭代和成熟度管理。最后，将通过演示验证基于矩阵的产品描述的计算机辅助建模、分析和可视化。

A procedure model for property-oriented product development has been developed in the first phase of the proposed research project "Product-oriented process management". This leads developers purposefully through the development process and supports regarding the calculation of the degree of product maturity and the preventive avoidance of iterations. As the product behaviour during its usage is crucial for customers, the procedure model focuses on product characteristics and properties as well as on the product behaviour. The results of the project make clear, that the relations between different product elements (e.g. properties, characteristics, behaviour) can be modelled and analysed very efficiently by a matrix-based product description in parallel to the development process. The overall objective of the follow-up project is the development of methods and IT tools for computer-aided modelling as well as graph-based analysis and visualization of product elements from the matrix-based product description. This main objective is subdivided into in the following two sub goals. A major problem of the matrix-based product description is their very time-consuming manual modelling. Therefore, the first goal of the proposed follow-up project is the development of a methodology for the computer-aided acquisition of the relevant data and information for a (partially) automated modelling of the matrix-based product description. For this purpose, the relevant IT systems (e.g. CAD system) have to be analysed with respect to all files and documents, which contain the product elements, and have to be evaluated with a cost-benefit analysis. Based on this, a concept for the computer-aided modelling through an automated acquisition of geometrical characteristics (e.g. from CAD models) for the matrix-based product description has to be developed. The result is the basis for an efficient and high-quality modelling of the matrix-based product description with all relevant product elements and their relations. The second goal, which is based on the first one, is the (further) development of computer-aided analysis and visualization methods for the matrix-based product description. Therefore, various concepts and algorithms from graph theory have to be identified and (further) developed to provide useful graph-based analysis and visualization options for product developers. This means that all product elements and their relations can be analysed and visualized through computer-aided tools and algorithms for efficient iteration and maturity management. Finally, the computer-aided modelling, analysis and visualization of the matrix-based product description will be validated by using a demonstrator.
