Abstract :
A structured methodology for linking data modeling with functional modeling in a computer integrated manufacturing system is presented. The target application, the functional and data models, and a method for developing the data model starting from the functional model are described. This approach ensures that the data model is complete and non-redundant with respect to the functional model. A scheme that enables various functions in the functional model to be linked with the data elements of the data model is also presented. Such a linkage makes it possible to determine the impact of a change in the functional model on the data model and vice versa
