Computing Algorithm of Due Dates and Cost of Configuration Product

Applying complex network theory to mass customization field, with the configuration result of product, a relation network of components and parts of product was construct. A computing algorithm of cost based on birth-first searching algorithm was proposed, two different computing algorithms of due dates, one based on shortest-path search and the other based on simple path search algorithm, were put forwarded, the function and efficiency of the algorithms was analyzed. As an example, a product of industry steam turbine is analyzed with these algorithms and some useful results are obtained
