Abstract :
To improve the features of cooperative design of products in distributed heterogeneous cooperation, methods of building cooperation interface and integration of heterogeneous design environment are presented with multi-agent technology. In products development, designs at various levels, stages and different places can cooperate and communicate with each other. So it takes a shorter time to develop a new product and high-quality of the product is improved. A system framework was put forward and a software environment supporting the remote collaborative design of product was developed and implemented to use
