“…Since Iren Greif and Paul Cashman mentioned CSCW in 1984, more and more scholars have focused on collaborative working. Nowadays, there have been some mature CSCD methods and systems in foreign countries, such as Fraunhofer Graphics Research Institution in Germany developed "Distribution Sketchpad" in 1994 [2] ; Saha in MIT put forward a design frame of CAD technique and tiny system based on Web [3] ; and Huang G Q in Hongkong University has brought out management ways of work flow based on Agent so as to develop integration product in internet [4] . A CSCD System faced to design process on Pro/INTRALINK is advanced and founded.…”

Computer Supported Collaborative Design(CSCD) is the applicarion of Computer Supported Collaborative Work(CSCW) in the product design field. Based on the analyse of the key technologies and problems of CSCD, a CSCD design frame faced to product design is established. Then a CSCD system faced to radar key components is founded with Pro/INTRALINK software and re-exploiting technology. Some key processes are designed too, such as database management, workflow programming, information communication, file release, conflict identification and safety management. These will provide a reference for constructing a cooperative design environment.

“…Significant research attention has been paid to enabling efficient integration of such systems [Jha95,Kis97,Gup97] and providing a secure intellectual property (IP) business model [VSI98, Kah98,Hon98]. However, only little effort has been focused towards determining the communication environment for a design process that depends on IP blocks and tools [Spi97,Sah97,Hin98].…”

Recently, the Internet revolutionized many activities from entertainment to marketing and business. Two key underlying Internet technologies, efficient data delivery and hypertext, demonstrated exceptional potential as new application enablers. In this paper, we present a novel Hypermedia-Aided Design (HAD) collaboration framework that facilitates new communication and data presentation paradigms to improve the effectiveness of typical EDA applications. The framework leverages on the advantages of using semantic multicast as a communication backbone and quantized hypermedia presentations as an efficient data organization, retrieval, and presentation model. Semantic multicast is a global communication tool that relies on an internetwork of proxies to provide content discovery and semanticsbased profile-driven data dissemination services. We introduce the notion of a quant, an atomic interactive multimedia information primitive with embedded hyperlinks. We demonstrate how interest-specific quant retrieval and concatenation can enable more focused collaboration.The HAD framework consists of a set of applications for student(designer)-centered CAD education(consulting), collaborative design and debugging, I-commerce, and technical support. In all applications, quant-based presentations enable that theoretical and practical components are tailored according to user's interest and performances. The conceptualized and implemented applications act in synergy with existing software, hardware, and system design tools.

Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) design and manufacturing are inherently multi-physical and multi-disciplinary; no single person is able to perform a full development process for a MEM device or system. This chapter presents a web-enabled design platform for collaborative design of MEMS. The proposed web-based distributed object modeling and evaluation framework with client-knowledge server architecture, KS-DMME, allows multi-users/designers in different locations to participate in the same design process. Under this framework, concurrent integrated MEMS design and simulation models can be built using both local and distributed resources, and the design collaboration can be realized by exchanging services between modules based upon CORBA standard communication protocol. To facilitate the rapid construction of the concurrent integrated design models for MEMS, a prototype web-enabled design system, Web-MEMS Designer, is implemented through concurrent integration of multiple distributed and cooperative knowledge sources and software. By use of the developed prototype system, MEMS design and simulation can be carried out simultaneously and intelligently in an integrated but open design environment on the web. A case study of a microgripper design for micro robotic assembly systems is provided to illustrate how designers in different teams and organizations may participate and collaborate in MEMS design.

A framework for distributed Web-based microsystem design

Abstract: The increasing complexity of microsystem design mandates a distributed and collaborative design environment. The high integration levels call for tools and generators that allow exploration of the design space irrespective of the geographical or physical availability of the design tools.
