Abstract
The paper presents a methodology developed within the PROSIT project, aimed at the improvement of the product development cycle through the integration of Computer-Aided Innovation systems with Optimization and PLM/EKM systems. The interoperability of these tools is obtained through the adoption of Optimization systems as design analysis means and the definition of formalized and validated procedures and guidelines. The logic of the proposed methodology is explained through a detailed study case related to the design of a plastic wheel for light moto-scooters.
