Abstract

The application of advanced database concepts in the design of manufacturing work cells is discussed. After an overview of some applications of semantic and object-oriented data models in the manufacturing domain, issues relating to their use in the design of manufacturing work cells are presented. A simple data and knowledge organization that integrates ideas and constructs typically available in general-purpose semantic data models with other mechanisms specifically tailored to the target domain is then illustrated. Finally, the use of this knowledge organization within a functionality-driven, task-level design procedure is discussed and illustrated by means of an example
