协作虚拟样机与协同设计方法

Collaborative Virtual Prototyping and Collaborative Design Methodology

协作虚拟样机技术是在分布式环境下，多领域专家协作建立和应用虚拟样机的方法和技术。本文分析了协作虚拟样机与协同设计的关系，提出了基于协作虚拟样机的协同设计方法，该方法可全面而灵活地支持协同设计，在产品实际设计、制造和使用之前，对其功能、性能进行充分仿真与验证。文中还讨论了协作虚拟样机建模方法和异构仿真方法，并给出了基于协作虚拟样机的协同设计环境的总体结构。

：Collaborative virtual prototyping (CVP) is the approach and technique used by multi-displinary experts to build and apply virtual prototype in a distributed environment. This paper analyzes the relationship between CVP and collaborative design, and presents a collaborative design methodology based on CVP, which can flexiblely and comprehensively support collaborative design. The methodology can fully test and verify the product's function and performance before its really design, manufacture and application. The paper also presents CVP modeling method and heterogeneous simulation method, and presents the architecture of the CVP based collaborative design environment.
