We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Design Collaboration",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Website reflects shift to design collaboration from
Actify, which we summarised at the time by saying "Actify has evolved to not only be a visualisation software supplier, but also a collaboration specialist with the addition of the DesignShare product line".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Upgraded software speeds product development from
PTC - Parametric Technology (UK): "Latest release of integrated 3D CAD/CAM/CAE software delivers new capabilities to help customers optimise key global and electromechanical design processes".
In July 2007, we covered the news from SolidWorks Corporation
concerning its CAD systems chosen for paper products
- take a look at CAD systems chosen for paper products
which says: "Paper Converting Machine has purchased a 200-seat licence of PDMWorks Enterprise to manage its CAD data while collaborating with engineering teams in Europe, Brazil, and Japan".
Take a look also at the news release from Autodesk, Collaboration software available for free download,
as well as CAD solution updated from UGS,
and Software allows design information sharing from Actify.
