Abstract
A method for sustainability analysis, and related data processing system and computer-readable medium. One method includes loading product assembly data, the product assembly data including a plurality of components. The method also includes loading sustainability data for the plurality of components, the sustainability data including, for each component, values for a plurality of criteria for each of a plurality of product lifecycle phases. The method also includes receiving a component selection and a phase selection. The method also includes displaying a sustainability output according to the component selection and phase selection.
Claims21
A method for sustainability analysis, comprising:
- loading product assembly data in a data processing system, the product assembly data including a plurality of components;
- loading sustainability data for the plurality of components in the data processing system, the sustainability data including, for each component, values for a plurality of criteria for each of a plurality of product lifecycle phases;
- receiving, from a user and by the data processing system, a component selection;
- receiving, from a user and by the data processing system, a phase selection;
- and
- displaying, by the data processing system, a sustainability output according to the component selection and phase selection.
A data processing system comprising a processor and accessible memory, the data processing particularly configured to perform the steps of:
- loading product assembly data, the product assembly data including a plurality of components;
- loading sustainability data for the plurality of components, the sustainability data including, for each component, values for a plurality of criteria for each of a plurality of product lifecycle phases;
- receiving a component selection from a user;
- receiving a phase selection from a user;
- and
- displaying a sustainability output according to the component selection and phase selection.
A tangible computer readable medium encoded with computer-executable instructions that, when executed, cause a data processing system to perform the steps of:
- loading product assembly data, the product assembly data including a plurality of components;
- loading sustainability data for the plurality of components, the sustainability data including, for each component, values for a plurality of criteria for each of a plurality of product lifecycle phases;
- receiving a component selection from a user;
- receiving a phase selection from a user;
- and
- displaying a sustainability output according to the component selection and phase selection.
