Application of Knowledge-Based Engineering (KBE) Technology to Intelligent Design Engineering Systems

基于知识的工程（KBE）是一种系统的方法，集成的设计和制造的产品及其相关过程，从概念到处置。KBE应用程序的典型特征是它接受设计规则和程序。这使得设计过程更加高效，从而降低了开发成本和产品交付时间。它还使知识和经验能够被捕获和保留，从而降低培训成本并使新员工更有效。该项目的目的是开发一个KBE环境，用于通过复杂结构的电线和导管布线，并在工业环境中验证其优势。

Knowledge Based Engineering (KBE) is a systematic approach to the integration of design and manufacturing of products and their related processes, from concept to disposal. Typical for KBE applications is that it accepts design rules and procedures. This makes the design process more efficient, which reduces development cost and product lead time. It also enables knowledge and experience to be captured and retained which reduces training cost and makes new staff more effective. The aim of the project is to develop a KBE environment for wire and conduit routing through complex structures and verify the benefits in an industry environment.
