Abstract
This study aims to develop the instrument products collaborative design system, in terms of fully integrating collaborative tools and sharing of information and resources between designers. The life-cycle Market-Driven Virtual Prototype Design System (MD-VPDS) of instrument products is put forward in this paper. In order to achieve collaborative design, a distributed collaborative design system that merges web and multi-agent technologies is proposed and implemented in MD-VPDS. Meanwhile, the function of all MD-VPDS sub-systems is introduced. The software frame of the system is set up based on the idea of Virtual Prototype Design (VPD) and Computer Supported Collaborative Design (CSCD). The model and work principle of multi-agent are discussed in detail and applied in instrument product collaborative design system. MD-VPDS avhieves CSCD of instrument products based on the integrated development environment of Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), Dawning 4000A cluster etc. It has greatly improved the efficiency of product design.
