Product life cycle process analysis

In our research, life cycle analysis of a product is viewed as a superset of analysis methods focused on individual life cycle stages. Each of the analyses seeks to qualitatively and quantitatively measure product performance both at the local life cycle stage as well as across the total product life cycle. MP3 player has been identified to highlight the broad application of Product Life Management (PLM) techniques. It is intended to establish product usage modes and manufacturing capabilities of the product markets, and to model them using life cycle simulation. Based on the findings, new life cycle scenarios can be designed improving on the current situation of the markets, with the proposed scenarios being similarly analyzed with PLM tools.
