Abstract

Version control is the prerequisite of collaborative product development environment, which, in its turn, has attracted increasing attention of CAD/CAM engineers. We aim to present our research results on a strategy of supporting evolution of versions in a collaborative environment. The strategy we provide is consists of a functional model which make application developing more easier, a deployment model in which a Version Management Unit is the deploying cell and a communication agent is included to exchange version information, a storage model which support that version information is saved in space of personal, group or global respectively. The topics discussed also in this paper are definition of version status, the transform of version status, the storage location of version and corresponding version operations.
