Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus include computer programs encoded on a computer-readable storage medium, including a method for suggesting products from available parts. A plurality of available parts in an inventory is identified, including identifying at least one assembly of plural individual parts or sub-assemblies. For each assembly, plural sub-assemblies or individual parts included in a respective assembly are determined. An inventory list is created that includes the plurality of available parts, the at least one assembly, and the determined sub-assemblies or individual parts of an assembly. An inventory of products is identified that constitute assemblies. Each product in the inventory of products has a respective parts list identifying parts required to build the product. The inventory list is evaluated including comparing the inventory list to the inventory of products to locate candidate products constructible using the elements included in the inventory list. Product suggestions are output.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for providing design DNA for a non-biological product. One of the methods includes, identifying an instantiation of a product, the product being non-biologic and being a manufactured item; determining design parameters to be associated with the instantiation of the product. The determining includes: evaluating the instantiation of the product, determining a design intent including an intended use or life of the instantiation of the product, and determining design parameters that were used in developing a design associated with the instantiation of the product.
