This thesis is looking at a recommendation system for a configurator. Developing a configurator and a recommendation system for this thesis is infeasible. Therefore, the decision was made to use an existing configurator. In this thesis \emph{CAS Configurator Merlin} \cite{IndustrySpecificProduct2020} is extended. As this configurator does not allow group configuration a modified version is used that already has been extended by \citeauthor{raabKollaborativeProduktkonfigurationEchtzeit2019} \cite{raabKollaborativeProduktkonfigurationEchtzeit2019}.
\section{Base System}
\label{subsec:DesignImplementation:BaseSystem}
\todo[inline]{move this section to foundations}
\citeauthor{raabKollaborativeProduktkonfigurationEchtzeit2019}'s \cite{raabKollaborativeProduktkonfigurationEchtzeit2019} extends CAS Merlin Configurator in his thesis to allow simultaneous configuration. The extended architecture is shown in \autoref{fig:DesignImplementation:CollaborativeConfiguratorMerlin}.
He only makes changes to M.Customer which is renamed to M.Collab-Customer and introduces a new component M.Collab.

\begin{description}
\item[M.Core] provides the base of the configurator. It checks the configuration against all rules in the database, provides possible alternatives if a change invalidates other parts of a configuration. The system relies on a CSP solver for valida tion and suggestion of alternatives.
\item[M.Model] is the editor to create products and rules. These rules can then be uploaded to M.Core.
\item[M.Collab] is a node.js server application that communicates with M.Core via REST-API and with M.Collab-Customer via WebSocket. It sits in between M.Collab-Customer and M.Core and handles all processing regarding collaborative configuration.
\item[M.Collab-Customer] a modified version of M.Customer that does all communication via WebSocket and does communicate with M.Collab instead of M.Core. M.Customer is the customer facing component. It allows a customer to configure a product or solution.
