Abstract: Product configuration system is a key tool supporting Mass Customization. In this paper, an ontology-based modeling approach on product configuration is proposed. At first the meta-model of product configuration is built, the configuration ontology is discussed and some relative concepts are presented such as component, function, resource, relation, port and constraint etc. Then the general modeling process based on configuration ontology is put forward, and the configuration model is presented using Object-Oriented Approach. Moreover, the port-based component constraint model is presented, and the object-oriented representation for configuration model is given. Finally, computer is used as an example to demonstrate the modeling approach.
