Over the last two years since CEEDA 91, much has been written on the subject of Concurrent Engineering and the place of Design Automation within its implementation. Global companies have learnt to reap the benefits of timely investments, whereas others have fallen by the way, either to slow the change or else not cornElsevier Science Publishers B.V.

mitted enough to underpin the change with real action. Anyone associated with new product development, will know that the new paradigm for success is "Provide the most value for the lowest cost in the least amount of time" (G. Stalk Jnr, Boston Consulting Group). To achieve quicker time to market, product design, development, production, and manufacture must be done concurrently to maximize the
