Abstract

A new computer supported collaborative work (CSCW) prototype system is developed to meet the needs of color CRT CAD/CAM. This paper discusses the characteristics and defines the key elements of the CSCW prototype system. The cooperation relation and cooperation work flow of color CRT CAD/CAM are provided. Compared with the traditional color CRT CAD/CAM system, the new CSCW prototype system is more suitable for the rapid design of color CRT. The efficiency of the new CSCW prototype is validated. A general CSCW architecture to support integrated product/process design and development is presented. A case study and evaluation of the architecture is also discussed. The integrated architecture will facilitate information access, sharing, and analysis among design team members using the open World Wide Web platforms and resources to design CRT products
