Abstract :
In this study, we consider the modelling about cost and environmental load through whole life cycle, usually, even though they have been discussed in each stage of life cycle individually. Furthermore, we propose evaluation and prediction system incorporating modelling by group method of data handling for the recycling design. In proposal system, it evaluates the recycling design by computer simulation on the assumption that users store necessary information to data base.
