Research Of Workflow-Based Drawing-Censoring Management System In CSCD

CSCD (Computer Supported Collaborative Design) is that the concept and technology of CSCW (Computer Supported Collaborative Work) are applied in the development process of products. CSCD system must be based on the analysis of CSCD using the technology of computer supporting.Drawing-censoring is an important step in the design process, and it is an important means of ensuring the validity of design. CSCD system changes the conventional mode and means of design, so the conventional mode of drawing-censoring does not apply and an electronic drawing-censoring management system must be established under the circumstances of CSCD. On the other hand, the flow of drawing-censoring is characteristic of typical workflow, so Drawing-Censoring Management System can be designed and implemented based on the workflow technology, which can realize the integrated management of the flow of drawing-censoring and improve the management and work efficiency.In this thesis, the drawing-censoring in CSCD is researched into well on the basis of analyzing network manufacturing oriented CSCD well, and a drawing-censoring management system is designed and developed based on workflow technology. The main contents are as follows:(1) On the basis of investigating enterprises, network manufacturing oriented CSCD is researched into and analyzed well, and the design of function structure and architecture of CSCD system are presented.(2) The drawing-censoring in CSCD is analyzed well including the flow of drawing-censoring, the relation between drawing-censoring and relevancy model etc, and the workflow management technology is introduced briefly. Then the significance of designing and developing Drawing-Censoring Management System based on workflow technology is indicated.
