Abstract

Design process model represents how a design project proceeds. It encompasses the individual activities of design, their precedence relationships, and the relevant information related to each activity. In contrast to the conventional visual representation methods, ontology-based process model is machine-readable, and therefore it can be implemented in a software system without repeating the whole steps of coding, compiling and link. This paper proposes a framework for design process ontology that defines the relevant objects and attributes in the design process as well as the relationships between them. An example for injection mold design process is shown to explain the substance of the design process model.
