Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (IS0
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0 technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0 collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISOAEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 YO of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this Amendment may be the subject of patent
rights. IS0 shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Amendment 1 to International Standard IS0 10303-203:1994 was prepared by Technical Committee lSO/TC 184,
Industrial automation systems and integration, Subcommittee SC 4, lndustrial data.

Introduction
This document amends IS0 10303-203:1994, Industrial automation systems and integration - Product data
representation and exchange - Part 203: Application protocol: Configuration controlled design. The corrected
document supersedes IS0 10303-203:1994.
The purpose of the modifications to the text of IS0 10303-203:1994 is to correct errors in the EXPRESS definitions
likely to cause compilation problems and to replace the object identifier for the document and the applicable
schema.

Part 203:
Application protocol: Configuration controlled design
Amendment 1
Modifications to the text of IS0 10303-203:1994
Table of contents, pp. iii-iv, clause 2, p. 3, clause 5.2, pp. 89-242, annex A, pp. 270-400 and index,
pp. 482-515
The purpose of these modifications is to correct Express errors that were not detected at the time of
publication due to the immaturity of the checking tools at that time. The corrections have been
documented in change pages for readability. The following pages replace Clause 2, Clause 5.2, Annex
A and the index of IS0 10303-203:1994 in their entirety as well as pages iii and iv of the table of
contents. The net affect of these changes in the short listing is:
- corrected geometric-representation-item-3d rule
- corrected assembly shape is defined function
- corrected subtype-mandatory-shape-representation rule
- corrected cc-design-date-time-correlation function
- added USES from AICs and removed the OLD 203 entities and functions
- added dummyjri constant
- added dummy-tri constant
- added degenerate-toroidal-surface (per TC2)
- added approvalgerson-organization-constraints (to solve type pruning issue)
- added approval-date-time-constraints (to solve type pruning issue)
- removed cartesian-transformation-opertor-2d (per tc2)
- removed offset-curve-2d (per tc2)
- added property-definition-representation (per seds 57)
- added representation-relationship (per seds 57)
- added b-spline-curve (per seds 57)
- added b-spline-surface (per seds 57)
- added conic (per seds 57)
- added point-replica (per seds 57)
- added swept-surface (per seds 57)
- added oriented-closed-shell (per seds 57)
- added path (per seds 57)
- added brep-with-voids (per seds 57)
Since the long listing is generated from the short listing, the best method of presenting the long listing
is to republish it as change pages. The index is being reissued to aid in navigation of the revised short
and long listings. The clause 2 changes were made so the document references the appropriate 500
series parts.

This clause specifies the EXPRESS schema that uses elements from the integrated resources and contains
the types, entity specializations, rules, and functions that are specific to this part of IS0 10303. This clause
also specifies modifications to the textual material for constructs that are imported from the integrated
resources. The definitions and EXPRESS provided in the integrated resources for constructs used in the AIM
may include select list items and subtypes which are not imported into the AIM. Requirements stated in the
89
---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
IS0 10303-203:1994/Amd.l:2000(E) OISO
integrated resources which refer to such items and subtypes apply exclusively to those items which are
imported into the AIM.

5.2.1 Fundamental concepts and assumptions
IS0 10303-203 is designed to be used in the configuration control of three dimensional product design data.
The fundamental concept of this schema is that the organization controls the configuration of these types of
product designs. This schema is not designed to control product designs through drawing control. It is
designed to provide a vehicle to control the configuration of the three dimensional design.
5.2.1.1 Relating the shape of a product to its configuration data
The shape of products in this part of IS0 10303 is represented by the shape-representation entity. This
entity and its subtypes define the geometric andor topological entities which make up a particular
representation type. Each mechanical part or assembly that is of interest will be given by an instance of the
product entity. Each product will, in turn, have at least one version given by an instance of the product--
definition-formation entity. Each version may have one or more definitions given by the product--
definition entity. Each definition may have its shape represented. This is done using the AIM entities by
relating the product-definition instance to the appropriate shape-representation instance. The concept
of the shape of a product-delinition is given by an instance of the entity product-definition-shape. That
shape of the product is then connected to the shape-representation entity by an instance of shape--
definition-representation. A shape-definition-representation inherits attributes from its supertype
