The goal of the DARPA/Tri-Service-sponsored Rapid Prototyping of Application Specific Signal Processors (RASSP) program is to reduce development and manufacturing time and cost of signal processors by a factor of four. Lockheed MartinÕs Advanced Technology Laboratories (ATL) RASSP team has developed an integrated systems engineering tool set which forms the basis for a concurrent engineering de...

The world has complex mega-cities and interdependent infrastructures. This complication in infrastructure relations makes it sensitive to disasters failures. Cascading failure causes blackouts for the whole system of infrastructures during lack performance emergency management stakeholders is clear a disaster due complexity system. research aimed develop new concurrent engineering model followi...

In Concurrent Engineering, several participants (designers, managers,...) stemming from different specialities, collaborate in order to build a system. In this paper, we propose a representation with the Conceptual Graph formalism to keep a trace of the design process in Concurrent Engineering as a project memory. Such design process is a cycle of individual design and collaborative evaluation....

Software Configuration Management addresses roughly two areas, the first and older one concerns the storage of the entities produced during the software project; the second one concerns the control of the activities performed for the production / change of these entities. Work space support can be seen as subsuming most of the later dimension. Indeed, work space is the place where activities ta...

For collaboration design we can distinguish between synchronous and asynchronous collaborative working. Both are important and complementary in AEC design. We focus on asynchronous collaborative working. It can be motivated that not separate tools but a complex system of concurrent engineering components linked together by an information logistic system are necessary to cope with the complexity...

Concurrent engineering has been generally accepted as an important approach to reduce time to market. For years, the focus of concurrency has been design and manufacturing. With customers’ inputs becoming more crucial for product development, incorporating customers’ preferences into the design process has become significant in the continuing quest for reducing time to market. Because customers...
