Abstract :
Driven by pressure to reduce product development time, industry has started looking for new ways to exploit stores of engineering artifact knowledge. Engineers are increasingly turning to design repositories as knowledge bases to help them represent, capture, share and reuse corporate design knowledge. The paper discusses the NIST Design Repository Project
