Abstract: In traditional structure-based Product Configuration (PC) method, the expression capability of the constraint relationship among parts was weak. To tackle this deficiency, a PC model and a configuration solving method based on generic product structure were presented, in which the structure-base method was combined with the rule-based method. In this model, the structure information was expressed by the structure-based method and the configuration constraint information was expressed by the rule-based method so as to enhance the expression capability of the configuration constraint. In the configuration solving method, a configuration reasoning graph was proposed. The nodes in the PC model were accessed with preorder tree traversal method and the configuration constraint of each node was solved by depth-first graph search method, the configuration solving capability was enhanced. Finally, an application demonstration was provided to illustrate the solving process based on the PC model.
