OBS

The Product Data Exchange Specification(PDES)(...) is an ambitious project to develop a standardized format for representing and exchanging information about almost any manufactured product. The specification will include geometric design information and all the information needed to make a part. The "National PDES Testbed" will have several additional functions, including : seeking out and diagnosting unsolved problems in the developing specification; providing a demonstration site for applications of PDES technology; helping to coordinate a national network of other PDES test facilities; and conducting an information and technology transfer program to speed the implementation of PDES standards. The project is funded by the Defense Department's Computer Aided Acquisition and Logistic Support(CALS) Office.
