PLM AND PRODUCT EMBEDDED INFORMATION DEVICES

摘要

This lecture introduces an overall framework for applications of Product Embedded Information Devices (PEID) such as RFID, sensors, on-board computers etc. in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). Recently, with emerging technologies related to product identification and wireless mobile telecommunications, PLM provides a new environment that enables lifecycle actors to gather and analyze product lifecycle information, and make efficient decisions without spatial and temporal constraints. PEID applications in PLM are seen from two viewpoints: technical and business. To this end, an overall framework for PEID applications in PLM is proposed. It contains the definition of a PEID its specification and operation scenarios.
