Abstract
Web Services, a distributed component technology based on XML and the Internet, is used for integrating heterogeneous systems under a distributed environment. Since CAD data is used as master data across the lifecycle of a product, it is important to share CAD data efficiently among the systems that are used for collaborative product development in a distributed environment. In this study, the concept of Web Services for CAD (WSC), which provides CAD data when required by organizations participating in the collaborative product development, is introduced. In addition, the technical details of WSC, including the system architecture of WSC, XML-based neutral CAD model, and interface for retrieving CAD model data are discussed. Finally, the implementation of WSC to Pro/ENGINEER and its experimental result are explained.
