Objective
It is widely accepted that for the effective advancement of the integrated product development environment within the overall context of concurrent enterprise there is a clear need for different organisations to continuously communicate with each other in order to exchange and share the latest developments and information. However, currently there is a lack of coherent infrastructure or mechanisms for the effective and constant cross-fertilisation of the research effort undertaken by various bodies whether they are in industry, academia or software vendors. Many of these organisations and institutes are involved in a range of concurrent engineering (CE) related projects both at European and national level. Due to the lack of effective co-ordination of these developments it is not possible to fully exploit the potential benefits from the output of R&D efforts currently in progress. Thus, the prime aim of CE-NET is to establish a well co-ordinated and effective support infrastructure throughout Europe in order to share and exchange the latest developments in the concurrent enterprise domain.
Specific objectives are,
- To provide the means for effective communication of tools and techniques available for the implementation of CE;
- To integrate better the work undertaken in different national and European R&D projects;
- To provide means for better cross-fertilisation of CE practices across different industrial sectors;
- To raise level of awareness of potential benefits accruable by applying CE approaches;
- To develop and provide means for better exploiting the results of R&D projects.
The activities and results will be,
- To build a database on available IT tools and best practice on CE and CE implementation;
- To provide CE implementation guidelines and recommendations for future actions;
- To organise information dissemination events;
- To identify new R&D topics.
The expected benefits for industry, research, and IT vendors are likely to consist of,
- Re-usability of research results through cross-fertilisation between various industrial sectors;
- A generic and modular approach to CE implementation strategy and methods for both SMEs and large enterprises;
- Implementation guidelines taking into account multi-sectoral, multi-cultural, and multi-lingual aspects;
- Existing IT tools for CE in more effective use, and full scale CE implementation facilitating electronic commerce
