Requirements: .ePUB, .PDF reader, 20.4 MB | True PDF, True EPUB
Overview: This book offers an introduction to the field of knowledge-based product configuration. It is designed for industry practitioners interested in the practical aspects of product configuration, as well as students seeking to learn about or conduct research in this domain. It aims to equip readers with the ability to: • Understand the benefits of diverse forms of individualization of products, including Product Configuration, Mass Customization, and Product Line Engineering, and • Effectively model configuration problems using appropriate tools such as UML class diagrams, feature models, and logic programming. The initial chapters of this book provide an overview of the topic. After a general introduction which also sets the terminology and outlines the benefits (Chap. 1), we cover the scope of product configuration (Chap. 2) and the business context, including architectures and interfaces to other systems (Chap. 3). There is a separate chapter on modeling (Chap. 4) and one providing an overview of configuration technologies (Chap. 5). Towards the end of the book, chapters address the main challenges in practice: quality (Chap. 6) and performance tuning (Chap. 7). Finally, two chapters provide insights into important current research directions: Chap. 8 describes how Generative AI approaches such as large language models (LLMs), chatbots, foundation models, and similar technologies could be utilized as user interfaces for configurators in the future or to support configuration processes in other ways; and Chap. 9 addresses the incorporation of sustainability and lifecycle information in product configurators.
