Abstract
Variation simulation approaches are frequently used to analyse the effects of geometrical variations on the final product quality. Various software tools are used during product development as they strongly differ in their specified goals, the context of use, and users. Although a few workarounds and information-sharing strategies exist, switching software usually results in the simulation model being built from scratch, leading to redundant manual effort and uncertainties. This paper examines the potential and limitations of the Quality Information Framework (QIF) information model in improving collaborative work within a heterogeneous simulation software landscape by exchanging variation simulation model-related information in a standardised Model-Based Definition sense. An application scenario shows how QIF can bridge the gap between tools used in early and late design phases.
