  6. MOTIVATION Time-to-market a product should be as minimum as possible. Data Exchange Problem Transfer of data between different systems working on different domains.(Mostly common difference will arise in system functionality) Each software vendor uses their own proprietary data. Resolution Approaches Eliminate - By use of Single Vendor software. Translate - Develop Translation mechanisms for all. Exchange - By use of a common file format.
  7. SOLUTION (TRANSLATE) TRANSLATORS: Vendor A Vendor B Vendor D Vendor C FIGURE 1: DATA EXCHANGE USING DIRECT TRANSLATORS
  8. OPTIMAL SOLUTION (EXCHANGE) NEUTRAL FILE FORMAT AND HALF-TRANSLATORS: Vendor A Vendor B Neutral Format Vendor C Vendor D FIGURE 2: DATA EXCHANGE USING NEUTRAL FILE FORMAT AND HALF-TRANSLATORS
  9. COMPARISON Table 1: A Comparison of the number of translators required for direct translation and Translation using a neutral file format.
  10. INTRODUCTION STEP (STandard for the Exchange of Product model data) is an international standard (ISO 10303) that provides an unambiguous, computer interpretable definition of the physical and functional characteristics of a product throughout its life cycle. Figure 3 : STEP in Product Life Cycle Stages FROM [4-Page 360]

  13. INTRODUCTORY (1-9) Part 1 - Overview & Fundamental Principles. DESCRIPTION METHODS (11-19) These classes describe the languages and methods that are used to create a STEP file.  Part 11 - The EXPRESS language reference manual. Part 12 - The EXPRESS-I language reference manual.
  14. EXPRESS Textual conceptual schema language based on entity-attribute-relationship model. Has seven declarative constructs. Schema,type,entity,constant,function,procedure and rule. Seven pre-defined types used as the types of an explicit attribute in an entity declaration. Number,integer,real,string,logical,boolean and binary. Simple Examples: ENTITY point; ENTITY line X : REAL ; p0 : point ; Y : REAL ; p1 : point ; Z : REAL ; END_ENTITY ; END_ENTITY;
  15. Code 1: Example of EXPRESS Schema SCHEMA royal_family; TYPE date = ARRAY [1:3] OF INTEGER; END_TYPE; TYPE hair_type = ENUMERATION OF (fair,brown,black,red,grey,bald); END_TYPE; ENTITY person SUPERTYPE OF (ONEOF(male,female)); first_name : LIST [1:?] OF UNIQUE STRING; last_name : STRING; title : OPTIONAL STRING; birth_date : date; death_date : OPTIONAL date; children : SET [0:?] OF PERSON; hair : hair_type; DERIVE age : INTEGER := years(birth_date); alive : BOOLEAN := NOT EXISTS(death_date); INVERSE parents : SET [0:2] OF person FOR children; END_ENTITY; ENTITY female SUBTYPE OF (person) husband : OPTIONAL male; maiden_name : OPTIONAL STRING; WHERE w1 : (EXISTS(maiden_name) and EXISTS(husband)) XOR NOT EXISTS(maiden_name); END_ENTITY; ENTITY male SUBTYPE OF (person); Wife : OPTIONAL female; END_ENTITY; RULE married FOR (female,male); (**to be written**) FUNCTION years(past : date) : INTEGER; (**to be written**) END_SCHEMA; FROM [1 Page 39]
  16. EXPRESS-G Express-G is a formal graphical notation of a subset of EXPRESS. It is defined in a normartive annex to PART 11 and is used for human communication. It provides constructs for the following: Attribute. Type. Schema and Inter-links. Entity and Entity generalization. Relationship and Cardinality. Multi-Page referencing.
  17. EXPRESS-G notation Figure 6: EXPRESS-G notation of SCHEMA royal_family. FROM [1 Page 41]
  18. EXPRESS-I EXPRESS-I is an instantiation language, which enables instances of a schema defined in EXPRESS. SCHEMA_DATA royal_family; George_VI = MALE { first_name -> (´Albert´,´Frederick´,´Arthur´,´Geeorge´); last_name -> ´Windsor´; title -> ´One of the Kings of UK family.´; birth_date -> (14, 12, 1895); death_date -> (06, 02, 1952); children -> (@Elizabeth_II); hair_type -> GREY; wife -> ?;}; Code 2:EXPRESS-I instantatition corresponding to above said EXPRESS schema FROM [1 Page 43]
  19. INTEGRATED RESOURCES (41-49 and 101-199) The conceptual building blocks for STEP. A/C to Example : Mathematics.

  28. PROBLEMS WITH STEP Applications Protocols not integrated. Migration. Less awareness of overall architechture. Temptational use of Integrated Resources.
  29. THANK YOU
  30. What steps do you think, can be followed to uplift the lower side of STEP?
  31. ON GOING STEPS. Applications Protocols not integrated. Dedicated Work Package. PDM Schema initiative of ProSTEP. Migration. Software tools produced by ProSTEP (for VDA-FS and VDA-IS) and Japanese STEP center (for IGES). Less awareness of overall architechture. FROM [5 Page 5]
