collaborators is not
supported by standards.
(Must be solved using
non-standard ways).
Product
model
IMS GLOBEMEN / FIN
Standards (STEP, IFC)
support one-time
transfer of complete
product model from one
system to another.
Solutions to be
demonstrated in Globemen:
(1) Enhancements to
standards
(2) Use of XML technology
