Abstract: In order to fill the need of parts resource sharing and reusing in networked manufacture environment, based on several standard technologies, integrated architecture for parts library resource is built. Functions and characteristics of the integrated architecture are analyzed. Especially, key technologies for realizing the integrated architecture are studied, including the information modeling technology for parts library in networked environment by extending PLIB standard(ISO 13584)and the formalized-expression method for parts library content based on tabular layouts of article characteristics together with classification & code technology. Furthermore, in order to adapt to the networked application environment, XML-based parts library information exchanging technology is built, meanwhile, for constructing XML Schema two mapping methods corresponding to two different information exchanging levels are present. The integrated architecture provides operable technology platform for the share of distributed parts resource and information integration.

Key words: Parts library PLIB standard Tabular layouts of article characteristics Extensible markup language (XML) Integrated architecture
