ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for computer modeling the production process is disclosed. An integrated product and process engineering system may be a computer modeling system that models both a generic production process and a specific individual production process. The integrated product and process engineering system may store a time dependent process parameter related to the specific product design and organize the time dependent process parameters by product variants. The time dependent process parameter may have a parameter value and a start time. The time dependent process parameters may be input/output component consumption parameters, activity duration parameters, resource capacity consumption parameters, and activity scrap parameters.
