To enhance the quality of design processes the collaboration and integration of disciplinary specialists into a holistic, multidisciplinary design team must be granted. The resulting demand for communication leads to the desire for a common language or namespace for the exchange of information. As the collaboration includes the capability to link analysis tools, communication must also be established on the level of computer code. Due to the fact that the number of interfaces is the critical factor for communication the common language must be coded in a single information model. The key to a multidisciplinary approach is therefore a central model that contains all data and is accessible for all domains. The goal of this work is to analyze three different models in respect to their benefits for information exchange in preliminary airplane design. These models are CPACS, developed at the DLR, STEP, published by the ISO, and the UML, released by the OMG. Several methods for the classification of information are introduced and requirements for information models are set up. The main part of the work is contributed to the analysis of the different models. Subsequently, a prototype for a converter tool, that processes CPACS data to STEP is developed. Additionally, a conversion from the CPACS modeling language XSD to UML is shown.
