Approaches To-Date • Hardware-Software Co-Design • Accelerate product development by creating a timing-accurate hardware simula-tion to debug hardware-software integration before actual hardware availability • Principal focus: embedded systems • Virtual Prototyping • Create a model of system to evaluate functionality and behavior relative to system requirements prior to undertaking detailed design/manufacturing • Principal focus: mechanical CAD, aerospace, automotive • Virtual Reality • A synthetic environment to evaluate virtual prototypes prior to physical design • Principal focus: defense, aerospace, shipbuilding • Concurrent Engineering and Integrated Product-Process Development (IPPD) • Simultaneously address product life cycle concerns from technical and management perspectives while in the early stages of development and thereafter • Principal focus: defense, aerospace, automotive, shipbuilding
