Abstract: Disclosed is a method of constructing and executing a process. A conventional process is minutely divided into minimum unit subprocesses, and the minutely divided subprocesses are classified into a decision subprocesses and a routine subprocess by whether they require decision-making. Any subprocess which is executable using the setup condition in a specific decision subprocess is classified into the routine subprocess in such a manner that the classified routine subprocess follows on the specific decision subprocess. One or a series of decision subprocesses are combined with one or a series of routine subprocesses which are executable on the condition of the completion of the decision subprocesses to form one unit process, and a job-support computer program is created to allow the plurality of subprocesses included in the one unit process to be successively executed.

Abstract: A design support method allows even inexperienced design engineers to design at a standard or higher quality level within a reduced design period of time. A setup step registers in a database the correlations of design specifications, circuit components and design items, which are required for the circuit design of a product. A design-specification determination step prompts a design engineer to determine the content of the design specifications. A circuit-component determination step prompts the design engineer to determine circuit components in accordance with the correlations between the design specifications and the circuit components. A design-item extraction step extracts design items required for a specific version of the product in accordance with the correlations between the design item and the design specification or circuit component, registered in the setup step, and presents the extracted design items to the design engineer.

Abstract: The present invention provides a die design support method and system capable of reducing the time-period required for a die design, allowing an unskilled die engineer to perform a die design without difficulties, and coping with a product design change in a short time-period. A standard die design procedure is stored as “master die data” in advance using a function of a CAD system or the like. When a product design data is entered, the design procedure is automatically executed to the design data in accordance with the stored master die data. Preferably, the entire master die data is divided into a plurality of processes, such as a process of creating a scaling model, and a process of creating a parting model.
