Publisher's Synopsis
The evolving model-based product realization process will produce a 3D product definition as a natural course of producing the product. This is because in a model based enterprise the execution of product and process models to realize the product will naturally produce a virtual product as well. Companies are beginning to realize that integrating the various models with collaborating applications that assist the various functions throughout the enterprise can provide untold benefits not only to the enterprise but to all downstream customers. This includes those needing a TDP to enable provisioning, provide logistics, and sustain the real product.
