    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.

    This article discusses the problems of modularity of EDM systems. EDM functionalities can already be found in existing system environments specific of companies, so that an EDM technology with individual expansions of functions would be desirable. The technical prerequisites which may be expected from present EDM systems are listed in a summary.

    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.

    Automatic scanning and interpretation of engineering drawings

    Successful future product development will be closely connected to an effective way of using CAD-facilities integrated in a CIM-environment. The integration aspect cannot be seen without concentrating on information processing and information acquisition problems. Todays CAD-systems do not provide possibilities for automatic capture of engineering drawing information. The increasing amount of existing engineering drawings - which in large part contain companies' know how - cannot be modified or accessed by CAD-systems, but may not be neglected in design processes using CAD-systems: Therefore, a real demand for convenient conversion methodes for engineering drawings can be stated. In this paper actual and new possibilities for the automated conversion of engineering drawings into CAD-models are discussed. After a global description of the conversion process, problems as well as existing and future solutions of processing substeps are explained in detail. The structure in principal and c omponents of conversion systems are described. The paper closes with an outlook on future trends and improvements using special hardware, parallel processing features and knowledge based methodes.
