Application protocol: System engineering and design | ISO/WD 10303-233 |
ISO 10303 is an International Standard for the computer-interpretable representation of product information and for the exchange of product data. The objective is to provide a neutral mechanism capable of describing products throughout their life cycle. This mechanism is suitable not only for neutral file exchange, but also as a basis for implementing and sharing product databases, and as a basis for archiving.
This part of ISO 10303 is a member of the application protocol series. This part of ISO 10303 specifies an application protocol (AP) for systems engineering design data.
This application protocol defines the context and scope for systems engineering design data, and references the AP module (ISO/WD 10303-433) that specifies the information requirements for systems engineering design data and the integrated resources necessary to satisfy those requirements.
Application protocols provide the basis for developing implementations of ISO 10303 and abstract test suites for the conformance testing of AP implementations.
Clause 1 defines the scope of the application protocol and summarizes the functionality and data covered.
An application activity model that is the basis for the definition of the scope is provided in Annex F.
Clause 3 lists the words defined in this part of ISO 10303 and refers to words defined elsewhere.
The information requirements of the application are specified in the AP module (ISO/WD 10303-433) that is referenced in Clause 4. Clause 4.1 presents the business context for the information required for the exchange of systems engineering design data. Figure 1 provides a data planning model that provides an overview of the information requirements of this domain in domain terminology. A more detailed data planning model is provided in 4.1. A graphical representation of the information requirements, referred to as the application reference model, is given in Annex G.
Resource constructs are interpreted to meet the information requirements. The interpretation is specified in the AP module (ISO/WD 10303-433) that is referenced in Clause 5. This interpretation shows the correspondence between the information requirements and the MIM. The short listing of the MIM that specifies the interface to the integrated resources is included by reference from the AP module. The expanded listing of the MIM that is referenced in Annex A contains the complete EXPRESS for the MIM without annotation. A graphical presentation of the MIM is provided in Annex H.
Clause 6 specifies subsets of the AP against which conformance may be claimed.
Additional requirements for specific implementation methods are given in Annex C.
This part of ISO 10303 specifies an application protocol for the representation of systems engineering design data. It defines the context, scope and information requirements for various development stages during the design of a system. This part of ISO 10303 is applicable to any form of system, including aircraft, cars, ships, railways, and plant.
