Abstract :
An application of the object-oriented semantic association model (OSAM) concepts to the modeling of parts and their relationships, including assembly operations, is presented. It is shown that the semantic primitives (facilities) of OSAM make it possible to model the necessary structural relationships and constraints adequately. The proposed scheme can be used for simulation and task planning in the workcell environment
