THE ENGINE TO SUPPORT BUILDING CPC SOLUTIONS

摘要

In modern business environment, inter-organizational collaborative product development is very important. CPC (Collaborative Product Commerce) is a new category of software, now emerging, to support inter-enterprise collaboration through the product life-cycle. But, so far there are not striking solutions to support collaboration among collaborative engineering groups. In this paper, we describe the engine to support building a CPC solution which is being developed by the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) as a part of a CPC project. It makes it possible to collaborate among geographically dispersed enterprises by sharing product information. We look over problems to have to be solved for designing the engine and propose solutions. In addition, we mention the developed CPC solution using the engine.
