Concepts for the use of knowledge-based engineering in intralogistics system planning



The planning process of intralogistics systems is characterised by a complex set of interdependencies of various conditions and specifications to be fulfilled. Within the planning process a huge source of existing knowledge in the form of various 3D-CAD machinery designs or information found within PDM-systems is only used sparingly. The newly developed knowledge-based engineering methodology to be shown states concepts for the formalization, enrichment and use of this existing knowledge in order to assist in intralogistics system planning and thus increasing its efficiency.

Host city and venue - Vienna

Vienna (Wien) is the federal capital and largest city of Austria, and one of the nine states of Austria.
