Abstract: This paper proposes a model to represent the structure of different types of Product Service Systems (PSS). The model can fill the current research gap that different types of PSS cannot be represented by a unified expression. In current research studies, PSS is divided into three main categories and each type has different ways to be modelled. Designers have to develop different types of PSS through very different ways. The model is developed on a new concept of Virtual Product, which represent the PSS from a customer's viewpoint. Based on this concept, different types of PSS can be represented in a unified model.
