Patent

CA 2158153

The present invention employs a generative approach for configuring systems (10) such that a system may be configured based on component or resource requests (60), or input in the form of need. The present invention provides a constraint-based configuration system using a structural model (12) hierarchy. The structural aspects of the model provide the ability to define a model element as being contained in, or by, another model element. In addition, the structural model (12) provides the ability to identify logical datatype and physical interconnections (30) between elements and establish connections between elements. To configure a system, the present invention accepts input in the form of requests (e.g., component or resource) or needs, such as an expression of a need for a desktop computer system to be used in a CAD environment.
