Abstract:

The main focus of the Parts Obsolescence Management Tools POMT program was the definition of a reengineering methodology that supports both the initial design and the reengineering of modern products. This methodology begins with the product specification using the concept of the simulatable specification as defined by the Continuous Electronic Enhancements using Simulatable Specifications CEENSS program and continues with the reengineering process whereby an implementation is developed and culminates with the interface to the manufacturing process. This effort also focused on the development of two key computer-aided design CAD tools needed to support the application of this methodology in real-world product challenges. These tools include a behavioral product reengineering BRP tool and design verification test generator DVTG tool.
