Abstract
This paper presents a novel design selection and generation mechanism for fast and efficient solution-finding based on the knowledge-based systems concept. Such a mechanism can be fully exploited in the early design phases (i.e. quotation phase), when the supplier has to propose both a technically feasible and pricewise attractive solution to the OEM's request. The benefits of the presented method are a massive time reduction from several weeks to less than one day as well as an improvement of the overall solutions quality as all possible technologies are evaluated parallel.
