IEEE P1175

["Barker, Sean (UK)" <sean.barker@baesystems.com>]

Following up on my comment in today's telecon, in the context of a
discussion on ontologies for parts and assemblies for mechanical
systems, the following comment was made:

"IEEE standards project P1175.4 is currently working on a developing a
standardized set of concepts for linking assembly and part structures to
system behaviours.  If you might have an interest in working to refine
those concepts into practical ontologies / data structures for
describing all these kinds of interrelationships, the goal of upcoming
project P1175.5, please let me know."

The IEEE site provides the following information:

It is not clear what the scope of this work is, or how it might relate
to PLCS, but I will investigate further.
