description | In the automotive industry, the compilation and maintenance of
correct product configuration data is a complex task. Our work shows
how formal methods can be applied to the validation of such business
critical data. Our consistency support tool BIS works on an existing
database of Boolean constraints expressing valid configurations and
their transformation into manufacturable products. Using a specially
modified satisfiability checker with an explanation component, BIS can
detect inconsistencies in the constraints set and thus help increase
the quality of the product data. BIS also supports manufacturing
decisions by calculating the implications of product or production
environment changes on the set of required parts. In this paper, we
give a comprehensive account of BIS: the formalization of the business
processes underlying its construction, the modifications of
satisfiability-checking technology we found necessary in this context,
and the software technology used to package the product as a
client–server information system. |
