以XML為基礎建立船舶採購規範系統之研究

Study on Development of a Xml-Based Purchase Order Specification System for the Shipyard

船舶的生產製作依據船東與設計人員最初討論所產出之「建造規範」文件，其內容已經涵蓋船舶建造所有相關資訊，或許會因各單位的需求而有所變動，但仍以最初原始文件為基礎；由於建造船舶時所需裝備屬於少量多樣化，各裝備之採購都必須附上詳細「採購規範」文件，而每份「建造規範」的格式又因各單位需求不同，在內容與格式皆有不同，因此製作需花費許多時間與人力。因此既然「採購規範」中許多資料都來自「建造規範」，若能善用「建造規範」便能快速產生「採購規範」。本研究以XML為基礎建置一套「採購規範」製作系統，使系統能顯取「建造規範」的資訊，快速產生我們所需之「採購規範」，而當艾件以XML方式產生，便能將內容做結構化利用，將在生產流程中各工作階段所需資料有效地再利用，不必再透過人工搜尋得到所要資料，便能節省人員浪費、增加各工作流呈效率；並且透過XSL將各工作流程中所需文件以不同格式呈現。 After discussed by owners and designers, all the ship building information is almost decided already. Then the information, such as the specification, might be based on the original specification and modified with other designers' different demands. The equipments of shipbuilding are full of variety and the amount even more than several hundred kinds. Each single equipment needs a document ”POS (Purchase Order Specification)” to describe its property, to which specification's content can quickly transact to the data. This study is to develop an XML-based Purchase Order Specification System which can produce POS with the XML structural content, and save a lot of manpower.
