A convergent product is an assembly shape concept integrating functions and sub-functions to form a nal product. To conceptualize the convergent product problem, a web-based network is considered in which a collection of base functions and sub-functions con gure the nodes, and each arc in the network is considered to be a link between two nodes. The aim is to nd an optimal tree of functionalities in the network, adding value to the product in the web environment. First, an algorithm is proposed to assign the links among bases and sub-functions. Then, numerical values, as bene ts and costs, are determined for arcs and nodes, respectively, using a mathematical approach. Also, customer value corresponding to the bene ts is considered. Finally, the Steiner tree methodology is adapted to a multi-objective model optimized by an augmented "-constraint method. An example is worked out to illustrate the proposed approach.
