Abstract
As complexity of products increased, management of development project becomes difficult. For better management of product development projects, this paper proposes an integrated model of product and process information. Most information on a proposed model is described as Multi Domain Matrices (MDM). Further, to overcome a difficulty of acquiring information, this paper proposes methodologies for model based assistance for information refinement. Then, computational methods to utilize acquired model is discussed. The proposed methods employ technics on DSM and DMM to deliberate possible candidates of development process, incorporating manageability of design process and resource allocation. As a result, it provides project managers with arena to discuss how to co-ordinate product development process.
