Model-Based Design projects typically evolve from simple to complex. They might start as a proof-of-concept or a feasibility study, and evolve into a sophisticated simulation with enough fidelity to answer detailed engineering questions. This churn is typical, and...

The problems unique to distributed Model-Based Design arise from a few sources. The engineers involved are not in continuous communication. A typical engineering team is co-located, meaning the engineers enjoy informal face-to-face communication as part of their daily...
