Attribution Standardization for Integrated Concurrent Engineering
… operations, cost, etc. Downstream Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) applications apply attributes to (preprocess) the geometry to perform their respective operations. These attributes are not permanently associated with the geometry and may have to be recreated each time the geometry changes. …

A concurrent engineering framework for apparel manufacture
The purpose of the present study was to develop a concurrent engineering (CE) apparel framework. Sequential manufacturing is the traditional production method for apparel manufacture. Sequential design and product development impact manufacturing more than any other process because design decisions …

Incorporating concurrent engineering and design economics in a decision support system
Concurrent engineering is a philosophy for improving design communication and aiding the process of recognizing and resolving design conflicts. Design economics is an integrated part of the concurrent engineering process, since cost-effective product design is at the root of many design conflicts. …
