Concurrent Design (CD) involves collaboration, coordination, and information-based co-
decision making within a potentially distributed multifunctional team. This paper shows that a …

Concurrent design can be viewed as processes of collaboration, coordination and co-
decision making within and between cross-functional teams. Based on this view we argue …

Concurrent engineering involves the integration of people, tools, information, and processes
into a responsive and efficient system. This paper addresses a key requirement in …

The use of feature-based design and Concurrent Engineering promises substantial benefits
but their successful implementation is hampered by the lack of a suitable formalism …

Concurrent Engineering has been identified by many as an approach which can lead to
improved product quality in less time at reduced cost. In this paper we go further by …

Viewing concurrent design as processes of collaboration, coordination and co-decision
making within and between cross-functional teams, we argue that an appropriate integration …

As technological tasks in manufacturing environment have become progressively
complicated, today's designers are confronted not only with increasing complexity of product …

By a “framework for concurrent design” we mean three things:(1) formal ways of stating the
problems of concurrent design,(2) visualization (conceptualization) aids to help devise …

Realisation of the concurrent engineering concept requires intimate cooperation and
integration across the upstream product development and downstream functional groups …

Concurrent engineering is a systematic approach to the integrated, concurrent design of
products and the related processes of manufacturing and support. This approach is intended …
