Describes underlying principles for design automation
Presents a coherent process for how to set up a design automation system
Based on engineering design methodology and supplemented by brief deillegalscriptions of computerized methods employed
Introductory text for the practicing engineer working in industry
Thisintroductory book discusses how to plan and build useful, reliable,maintainable and cost efficient computer systems for automated engineeringdesign. The book takes a user perspective and seeks to bridge the gap betweentexts on principles of computer science and the user manuals for commercialdesign automation software. The approach taken is top-down, following the pathfrom definition of the design task and clarification of the relevant designknowledge to the development of an operational system well adapted for its purpose.This introductory text for the practicing engineer working in industry coversmost vital aspects of planning such a system. Experiences from applications ofautomated design systems in practice are reviewed based on a large number ofreal, industrial cases. The principles behind the most popular methods indesign automation are presented with sufficient rigour to give the userconfidence in applying them on real industrial problems. This book is alsosuited for a half semester course at graduate level and has been complementedby suggestions for student assignments grown out of the lecture notes of twopostgraduate courses given annually or biannually during the last ten years atthe Product development program at the School of Engineering at JönköpingUniversity.
Introduction.- Industrial products and how they are developed.- Computerised methods to Design For Variety, DFV.-Clarifying, idealising and modelling of engineering knowledge.- Problem structure and knowledge processing.- Representation and processing of explicit knowledge.- Representation and processing of implicit knowledge.- Planning a Design Automation System.- Appendix 1: Industrial DA systems in production or prototyping.- Exercises.

Klappentext
This
introductory book discusses how to plan and build useful, reliable,
maintainable and cost efficient computer systems for automated engineering
design. The book takes a user perspective and seeks to bridge the gap between
texts on principles of computer science and the user manuals for commercial
design automation software. The approach taken is top-down, following the path
from definition of the design task and clarification of the relevant design
knowledge to the development of an operational system well adapted for its purpose.
This introductory text for the practicing engineer working in industry covers
most vital aspects of planning such a system. Experiences from applications of
automated design systems in practice are reviewed based on a large number of
real, industrial cases. The principles behind the most popular methods in
design automation are presented with sufficient rigour to give the user
confidence in applying them on real industrial problems. This book is also
suited for a half semester course at graduate level and has been complemented
by suggestions for student assignments grown out of the lecture notes of two
postgraduate courses given annually or biannually during the last ten years at
the Product development program at the School of Engineering at Jönköping
University.
