Abstract
Exploitation of distributed resources spread in diverse enterprises is a new and critical issue in the course of product development cycles. Although the development of IT technology has provided a base for realisation of this paradigm and assisted different CAx agents, such as designers and engineers, to exchange their ideas and design information, but still many CAx software agents are working separately and locally in manufacturing environments and most of the current CAx software suites have been known to be inconvenient for enabling collaboration among manufacturing agents in distributed manufacturing enterprises. The distributed CAx collaboration and data integrity play a major role in...
An integrated approach for enhancing the quality of the product by combining robust design and customer requirements
, Article Quality and Reliability Engineering International ; Vol. 30, Issue. 8 , 2014 , pp. 1285-1292 ; ISSN: 07488017 ; Haji, M. J ; Eslamipoor, R ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
Enhancing the quality of the product has always been one considerable concern of production process management, and this subject gave way to implementing so many methods including robust design. In this paper, robust design utilizes response surface methodology (RSM) considering the mean and variance of the response variable regarding system design, parameter design, and tolerance design. In this paper, customer requirements and robust design are regarded simultaneously to achieve enriched quality. Subsequently, with a non-linear programming, a novel method for integrating RSM and quality function deployment has been proposed to achieve robustness in design. The customer requirements are...
Extended INFELT STEP: An interoperable platform for managing collaboration among New Product Development applications and CAD/CAM software integrated based on ISO 10303 (STEP) standard
, Article Proceedings of the International MultiConference of Engineers and Computer Scientists 2010, IMECS 2010, 17 March 2010 through 19 March 2010, Kowloon ; 2010 , Pages 1820-1826 ; 9789881701282 (ISBN) ; Houshmand, M ; Sharif University of Technology

Abstract
Today's information technology capabilities enable the enterprises to increase the manufacturing collaboration and interoperability among their different departments. These departments are engaged in different product development processes from design to manufacturing. INFELT STEP is a three-layered platform. These layers have functions and structures that enable the INFELT STEP platform to manage the product development collaboration among different CAD/CAM application software with an integrated product data structure. INFELT STEP has structures and functions in its interoperability layer that enable different CAD/CAM application software and CNC post processors to use their own data...
