  • Virtual product model : a concept for better information mangement processs
    Rebolj, Danijel ; Tibaut, Andrej, 1968-
    Today, many researchers working on the information management process in construction recognize the problem of modelling complex product-related data structures. Furthermore, many experts doubt ... whether an all-inclusive-product-model is a solution for an integral information environment that should efficiently support the life cycle of a product. It seems that the rich experiences in product modelling gained during the last decade does not lead necessairily to better models, but rather to the awareness that the more complex the product models are, the more rigid and less usable they get in practice. These recognitions already led to some suggestions for the future integration methods and product modelling, like building smaller domain oriented models and link them using mapping schemes. In this way, however, the complexity of the whole system hasn`t decreased, even worse, it grew. The paper summarizes some deficiencies of complex product models and then introduces a solution called the Virtual product Model, which is based on the decomposition of a conventional product model. The concepts, basic components and an example of the Virtual Product Model are described.
