NIST Manufacturing Process Planning and CAME. Workshop Proceedings. Held inGaithersburg, Maryland on June 10-11, 1996

摘要

The workshop was sponsored by the National Institute of Standards and Technology(NIST), the U.S. Navy Manufacturing Technology Program and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). Invitations to participate in the workshop were extended to participants in earlier workshops held as part of the Process Planning Workshop Series and previous technical meeting of the CAME Forum. Eighty individuals from the research, software development/vendor, manufacturing, and government communities attended the workshop. Of non-government attendees, about half were from the academic research sector, about 30% were manufacturers, and the balance was application software developers/vendors. A list of workshop participants is provided in Appendix A. Abstracts submitted in advance of the workshop by many invitees helped shape the workshop objectives and content. Participants' interests covered a range of process planning and manufacturing engineering topics including: Features, Al/Process Planning, NC machining; Systems integration and deployment; Process modeling and representation; CAPP as a critical-path tool in software supporting concurrent/collaborative engineering.
