1. A method for visualization of a product build, said method performed by executing computer readable instructions stored in memory, said method comprising:
formulating, at one or more processing units, a plurality of manufacturing installation plans each having processes, components and resources configured to direct production in a manufacturing process of a portion of a product within a build sequence of said product, at least one installation plan of the plurality of installation plans associated with one or more preceding installation plans to be performed before the at least one installation plan within said build sequence; formulating, at the one or more processing units, a control station precedence network by arranging said installation plans according to precedence within said build sequence of said product, the precedence network including logical precedence relations between installation plans and the precedence relations defining which installation plans must be completed before other installation plans may be started; generating, at the one or more processing units, a three-dimensional virtual visualization of a temporal build state within said build sequence of said portion of a product for the at least one installation plan, revisions to the one or more preceding installation plans automatically accounted for in the at least one installation plan; determining a minimum manufacturing context of said components in a given installation plan corresponding to said portion of a product, the minimum manufacturing context defining which installation plans must be completed prior to beginning the given installation plan; and determining a maximum manufacturing context of said components in the given installation plan, the maximum manufacturing context defining which installation plans could be completed prior to beginning the given installation plan. |
