Abstract :
Feature-based data exchange (FBDE) for heterogeneous CAD systems is one of the key issues in Collaborative Product Development (CPD) which is now enabled by Cloud-Based Design and Manufacturing (CBDM). Firstly this paper presents a FBDE-as-a-Service architecture for data exchange in CBDM. Within this architecture, FBDE users in the CBDM environment can acquire a set of Peer to Peer (P2P) services to realize the FBDE functions among heterogeneous CAD systems. Secondly, in order to integrate FBDE services into CBDM, we present a P2P approach for FBDE, which is totally different from traditional centralized and neutral file-based approach. Thirdly, some key issues of FBDE-as-a-Service, such as Pre-P2P FBDE service, Post-P2P FBDE service and topological entity matching are researched. Finally, a prototype system of FBDE-as-a-Service for data exchange is implemented to demonstrate the proposed ideas.
