Concurrent engineering is a step away from the traditional centralised method of system design towards a more integrated means. Applications in the space industry to support conceptual and preliminary design phases have shown it to be effective in eliciting higher system performance and robustness, with favourable impacts on schedule and cost.

Concurrent engineering is a step away from the traditional centralised method of system design towards a more integrated means. Applications in the space industry to support conceptual and preliminary design phases have shown it to be effective in eliciting higher system performance and robustness, with favourable impacts on schedule and cost.
The talk will overview the concurrent engineering methodology and the results of recent applications at the German Aerospace Center (DLR).
