Abstract

In an automated environment, concurrent engineering is impossible without standards. The full automation and integration of industrial processes is impossible unless standardised hardware and software, especially standardised knowledge and information models, exist to allow intercommunication among all types of computerised systems. The author considers how concurrent engineering, based upon product data standards and enterprise integration framework standards, represents a new form of concurrent engineering that can be called multi-enterprise concurrent engineering
