AbstractGlasses are becoming more and more important as part of our daily life. The product is an interesting and general. People's needs in this regards are different. In this research work a case study of product life cycle management of smart glasses for future use is presented. Research is thorough and quantitative. Basic objectives that were to establish are the reasons for wearing sunglasses, the most important characteristics that glasses must meet, setting the fashion trends for glasses and provides market strategy for selling glasses until recycling. On the basis of research done on sample of 30 people, different option were put in front of them the most important were chosen, which are, built-in speaker for playback, capacity to store memory, connectivity to external devices (PC) and Radio/MP3. Market strategy is also set for the glasses from factory to the recycling including customer feedback, environmental concerns. Conceptual design of the glasses using computer aided design is also presented. This multidimensional product is an achievement in innovation, entrepreneurship and gives good insight into the implementation of engineering education through product life cycle.

Automobile, aerospace, and other industrial manufacturers have evolved over the years to use a multitude of computer-aided design (CAD) and product data management (PDM) systems and have long depended on single-vendor solutions to support their enterprise-wide engineering activities. Increased product complexity, distributed authoring environments, and the need for tighter team integration with partners and suppliers have created challenges and new opportunities for information technology (IT) vendors to be able to integrate systems from multiple independent software vendors (ISVs) to form a coherent Enterprise PDM system. This paper will describe, in detail, a case study and solution of an IBM Research project called Hedwig. Hedwig investigates creating robust solutions for Product Life-Cycle Management (PLM). We focus on several research issues, including information federation, data mapping, synchronization, and web services connections. We describe a working system that allows access to several heterogeneous PDM systems that are used in the automotive and aerospace industries.
