Abstract :
This paper describes the development of a coordination support system for distributed software development teams within environments of change and pressure for improved delivery times. It concentrates on using concurrent engineering methods to improve delivery and shows how concurrent processes can be supported using coordination support tools. It then speculates on extensions needed for the cycle to support change and how these extensions can be supported by coordination tools
