OASIS Product Life Cycle Support (PLCS) AP239 DEXs

The purpose of the OASIS Product Life Cycle Support (PLCS) DEXs standard is to establish structured data exchange and sharing capabilities for use by industry to support complex engineered assets throughout their total life cycle. The OASIS Product Life Cycle Support (PLCS) DEXs standard is defined by Data Exchange Specifications (DEXs) that are based upon ISO 10303 (STEP) Application Protocol 239 (Product Life Cycle Support). There is a 70% overlap between AP233 and AP239

Usage guide of the STEP PDM schema V1.2

Release 4.3 Jan 2002. Usage guide goal: to describe the recommended structure and attribute population for particular instance models created from the EXPRESS entities and types defined by the STEP PDM Schema. The selected instance models illustrate how to encode data values that need to be exchanged in support of key industry requirements common across the product manufacturing domain. Note: AP233 contains within it all of the PDM schema

Collaborative workspace for the Model Driven System Design Working Group

This link is to a members only section of INCOSE CONNECT. It contains the lectures "AP233 Systems Engineering and Design: Overview" and "AP233 Systems Engineering and Design: Implementation" given at the INCOSE 2007 San Diego July 24-29 meeting by Phil Spiby.

ISO STEP-AP233 Transition Development to Enablement

Lecture providing Ap233 background, relationship to other STEP standards, implementation approaches and new implementation possibilities.

Integrating System Architecture & Engineering Applications Using Open Systems

AP233 presentation by David Price System at the OSJTF SoS Architecture Modeling Meeting September 22, 2005. Overviews System-of-Systems Architecture, Collaborative System-of-Systems Engineering, Enable communication between SEs and the tools they use, Standards and SE data - DODAF, AP233, SysML

The NIST Systems Engineering Interoperability Worksite

The NIST Systems Engineering Interoperability Worksite is a collection of tools and reports produced as part of NIST's work with the US Department of Defense Systems and Software Engineering office. The site provides: * The home of the SE Interoperability Plug-Fest * The home of the EXPRESS Injector, a tool that maps ISO/STEP EXPRESS to OMG XMI using the EXPRESS Meta-model.

AP233 - Systems Engineering Data Exchange

This Web site is dedicated to the support of the use of ISO 10303-233 (AP233) Systems Engineering and design. AP233 is designed as a neutral information model for the exchange of data between Systems Engineering, Systems Architecture Description and related tools. In most cases, the specifications within this site are the definition of mappings between the schema or metamodel of an application, database or standard and the AP233 XML Schema. This documentation is self-contained so that readers need no knowledge of the AP233 ISO standard itself or the ISO EXPRESS language in which AP233 is standardized.
