ISO 13584-24:2003
Scope
This part of ISO 13584 specifies generic EXPRESS resource constructs that support the description of
different kinds of information about supplier libraries. It also contains a set of integrated EXPRESS
information models for representing supplier libraries for the purpose of exchange. These integrated
information models integrate EXPRESS resource constructs from different parts of ISO 13584 and
ISO 10303 into a single schema. Supplier libraries may consist of definitions or representations of
families of parts. Supplier libraries may also define new representation categories. Supplier libraries
may consist only of dictionary elements, or they may also contain specifications of permitted instances.
When used together with view exchange protocols, these integrated information models also permit
the exchange of one or several representation categories for the parts defined in a parts library.
The following are within the scope of this part of ISO 13584:
— Generic resource constructs for representing hierarchies of families of parts. The parts in the
families may be components or assembled parts, and may be abstract parts or physical parts.
— Generic resource constructs for representing implicitly the definitions of the different parts that
belong to a family of parts.
— Generic resource constructs for representing the different kinds of possible representations of the
different parts that belong to a family of parts.
— Generic resource constructs for representing families of materials, together with their definitions
and possible representations.
— Library integrated information models that gather generic resource constructs from different parts
of ISO 13584 and ISO 10303 into one single schema for representing supplier libraries for the
purpose of exchange. The supplier libraries may consist either of definitions of families of parts, or
of representations of families of parts or of definitions of new representation categories that may
be provided for any family of parts.
The following are outside the scope of this part of ISO 13584:
— Description of assembled parts that may contain an unlimited number of constituent components.
— Specification of a software system able to manage supplier libraries represented according to the
information models defined in this part of ISO 13584.
— Description of the different representation categories that a supplier library may contain.
