The Digital Manufacturing Commons

Abstract

The Digital Manufacturing Commons (DMC) was envisioned to be an open-source platform to foster real-time collaboration among various stakeholders across the engineering lifecycle. The platform would democratize the development and use of design-build tools by hosting a cloud-based marketplace for digital thread applications. The DMC would leverage foundational CAD and analysis tools but also encourage an ecosystem of user-based applications through open application programming interfaces (APIs) and services. These key innovations would enable both professionals and community contributors to design components, together or independently, and then utilize the myriad of DMC-based tools to analyze, test and harden those designs before release.
