    To meet changing demands with respect to product development processes, innovative soft- ware tools are required which perform in multimedia environments and with advanced coope- rative technologies. These tools support the designer in a distributed product development process to shorten product development time and to increase product quality. In this sense, communication technologies supporting computer-based 'teamwork, the improvement of information supply and an increase in the efficiency of training measures are of great importance. The Fraunhofer-lnstitute for Production Systems and Design Technology (IPK), Department of Design Technology, and the Institute for Machine Tools and Manufacturing Technology of the Technical University of Berlin (IWF) Department of Industrial Informa- tion Technology, present different approaches to optimize distributed product development.

    Distribution of design tasks is a measure to accelerate the product design process. In a distributed design environment based on broadband communication network it is feasable to split the design task into functional and shape related subtasks. Under the supervision of a project management system the design tasks can be worked out in parallel and independently. The product model of the design system can include information about design space, design constraints and connections to other design subtasks.

    New hardware and software tools based on wide-band communication techniques are opening innovative ways of distributed product development, in connection with multimedial systems and techniques of cooperation. At the example of a system implemented as a prototype it presents the basic possibilities for improvement and provides an outlook on the future potentials which are connected to that technique
