"The age of isolated expert systems is over. Now is the time of integration. Our members realize the permeability of existing information silos and appreciate the importance of establishing integrated process flows across disciplines as well as company borders," said Dr. Steven Vettermann, General Manager at ProSTEP iViP.

OASIS OSLC (Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration) advances a suite of standards and interoperability integration patterns that are used for linking lifecycle information in a smart way.
