Abstract :
In this study the effects of maintenance on product life cycle management are examined. Product life cycle management systems are modeled with objects, actors and processes. Actors make decisions based on product conditions and other constraints, and activate the associated processes. Maintenance management systems are described in the same way and the behavior of a whole system is simulated stochastically. From the simulation result, effects of maintenance on lifecycle management are examined.
