Since customer's demand is various and product life cycle is getting shorter, many manufacturing company is trying to reduce product development time and cost. For that reason they make an effort to design product on collaborative environment. The various activities in a product development are highly distributed. This distributed nature of the activities implies that teams will be working indifferent place and technical environments. Thus at a given time, teams might work on he same product from different perspectives. This will require efficient communication amongst the various individuals and the various softwaretools that are used by them. Therefore, there is a need for a computerized frame work that can support distributed design such that participants from different backgrounds collaborate towards one common goal. This paper presents the architecture of a collaborative design system. It then reports on the study of computerized frame work focused on collaboration for product development.

Cultural and personal issues resulting from dispersed teams are considered to be serious barriers to form trust and organize effective agile teams. However, apart from separate, reported evidence of such issues from work experience, there has been no theoretical classification in literature. This paper provides a list and analysis of common challenges mainly resulting from cultural differences and barriers in Agile Software Development (ASD) offshore teams. The data source comprise articles published in IEEE, mostly of conferences related to ASD. Among the articles, papers with concrete evidence of Agile Methods (AM) implementation were selected. The results show that despite the relative significance of such issues, ASD adopters typically still rely on their own experience, and creativity rather than using well-defined methods. Moreover, this study reveals that the notion of trust, as discussed in the literature, mainly refers to maintaining the pace of communication, which is the focal point in ASD.

Many R&D organizations have interests on knowledge management system(KMS) to organize and utilize their knowledge resources. Currently, for research collaboration and knowledge management R&D organizations use either a specialized knowledge management system or a set of general application systems such as basic messaging system and document management system. The objectives of this paper are to identify important functionalities of knowledge management systems based on team characteristics and knowledge process of research teams in research organizations and to provide implications to design and implement knowledge management system for R&D teams. Survey results show that research teams perceive communication, collaboration and connection functionalities are important when their team sizes are large or they are distributed. During knowledge capture process, they need personalization of knowledge to reduce information overload.

This paper focuses on the study of simulation and evolution of Micro Air Vehicles. Micro Air Vehicles or MAVs are small flying robots that are used for surveillance, search and rescue, and other missions. The simulated robots are designed based on realistic characteristics and the brains (controllers) of the robots are generated using genetic algorithms, i .e., simulated evolution. The objective for the experiments is to investigate the effects of robot team size and topology (simulation environment) on the evolution of simulated robots. The testing of team sizes deals with finding an ideal number of robots to be deployed for a given mission. The goal of the topology experiments is to see if there is an ideal topology (environment) to evolve the robots in order to increase their utility in most environments. We compare the results of the various experiments by evaluating the fitness values of the robots i .e., performance measure. In addition, evolved robot teams are tested in different situation in order to determine if the results can be generalized, and statistical analysis is performed to evaluate the evolved results.

When we develop and use the java-based distributed object system, the system developer must deploy distributed object, which is implemented to predefined interface, to network and the system user acquires reference about distributed object and changes reference to interface type. Sharing of interface is essential for these works In this paper, we propose the IRSJ(interface repository service based on jim) to improve efficiency of interface sharing at the JINI system development. the IRSJ is consisted of the java classes for JINI system and interface sharing service. If development teams perform collaborative work in short distance, the IRSJ can search interface file without information of lookup server or interface writer If development teams perform collaborative work in long distance, the IRJS can search interface with only an address of server that executes lookup service. Although the interface object not requires additional search, the interface object that failed search interface can download interface and use interface using remote event model. When the message service fails in interface search, the message service sends interface request message to a development team member who use the IRSJ automatically, so that interface sharing may be possible in short time.

Better understanding and sharing information are getting important to manage interdisciplinary product development team in a globally-distributed company. This study proposes a solution to implement RPD(Rapid Product Development) system for the distributed development teams using SOAP(Simple Object Access Protocol). And a new approach is introduced for the better understanding of product geometry among the development members in different place and the easy sharing of product information. An application example shows that SOAP operates in distributed environment more efficiently than other RPC(Remote Procedure Call) techniques and it does not respond sensitively to firewall. And SOAP is an excellent RPC and messaging technique to exchange structured data. Procedures developed with use of SOAP are worked together with web, and users can use remote services as an application program in their local computer.

It is becoming increasing1y the norm for project teams to be composed of individuals who are geographically distributed but connected by high speed network. In such environments a lot of work related documents are created, so there is real needs for the system that facilitate the effective sharing, maintaining. managing of them. This paper present the system that satisfy this needs, which is known as IDOMA(Intelligent Documents management system based on Multi Agent). IDOMA is the cooperative multi agent based documents management system which has not centralized database.

As todays manufacturers and business organizations are struggling to compete in the global marketplace, they are concentrating on the efficient use of numerous information on design, development production, testing, distribution, and maintenance of products throughout their whole life cycles. To meet these organizations demands on information integration, the CALS has been recently focused as a dominant philosophy. In this paper, we introduce the computer supports for engineering CALS in which the engineering process at an initial phase of product development is simultaneously and collaboratively peformed. The proposed system supports the following functions: a virtual prototyping, a distributed collaborative design, and engineering information management. We have conformed to CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture) standard to support interoperability between distributed objects and have used JAVA to support cross-platform and distributed user access to the system on the Web. Under this system, multidisciplinary design teams in engineering CALS environment can collaboratively perform their tasks, share design information and communicate with each other on the Web.

Since the emergence of the fourth industrial revolution, data analysis is being conducted in various fields. Distributed data processing has already become essential for the fast processing of large amounts of data. However, in the defense sector, simulation used cannot fully utilize the unstructured data which are prevailing at real environments. In this study, we propose a distributed data processing platform that can be applied to battalion level simulation models to provide visualized data for command decisions during training. 500,000 data points of strategic game were analyzed. Considering the winning factors in the data, variance processing was conducted to analyze the data for the top 10% teams. With the increase in the number of nodes, the model becomes scalable.
