Abstract

Computer aided engineering (CAE) tries to map properties and interactions of real world entities with symbols and values readable to the machine. Modern CAE software packages are powerful in function, but users usually need a lot of knowledge and experience to manipulate them. As a kind of tacit knowledge, experiences require gauged context in order to be fully understood and applied. To better exploit the freely written, hard-to-encode experiences on the web, we propose in this paper a context sensitive experience feeding mechanism which is able to recommend experiences matching the context of a given CAE task. Our method makes use of information extraction and natural language processing techniques to find experience valuable to engineer’s trouble shooting. Empirical evaluation of a prototypical feeder suggests that our method is effective.
