Scientific forecasts years ago announced the virtualisation of computer-aided product development for the near future [1], The discussed change is already undergoing a gradual start and reveals itself in changed company structures and mew paradigms for the future course of action. Without the spectacular developments of information technology, changes accelerated in such a way are, however, barely conceivable. This article presents a number of recent new developments in IT that are designed to be used as cooperation tools for distributed virtual product development in networked companies.
