Towards Industrial-scale Product Configuration

Abstract

We address the challenge of product configuration in the context of increasing customer demand for diverse and complex products. We propose a solution through a curated selection of product model benchmarks formulated in the COOM language, divided into three fragments of increasing complexity. Each fragment is accompanied by a corresponding bike model example, and additional scalable product models are included in the COOM suite, along with relevant resources. We outline an ASP-based workflow for solving COOM-based configuration problems, highlighting its adaptability to different paradigms and alternative ASP solutions. The COOM Suite aims to provide a comprehensive, accessible, and representative set of examples that can serve as a common ground for stakeholders in the field of product configuration.
