Research on key technologies of 3D collaborative design system based on multi-agent system

Abstract

The architecture of 3D collaborative design system is presented based on the multi-agent system, and relevant technologies of its implementation in computer supported collaborative design (CSCD) are discussed, which includes the database servicing based on SQL Server, data exchange through XML Web services, and development of 3D CAD software as the design platform for the entire CSCD system. The 3D collaborative design archetypal system is established and tested in industrial product design. It is evidenced that the product 3D collaborative design system oriented to projects management is fulfilled in this system.
