ABSTRACT:
A data model is provided for storing data related to multiple variants of assemblies in a computer-associated memory. A multivariant assembly data object functions as a container for component usages, logical component usages, and also for the assembly-components, each of which represents a variant of the corresponding product or assembly family. Component usages can be shared by multiple assembly-components all of which are members of the same multivariant assembly.
