Abstract

Software Configuration Management addresses roughly two areas, the first and older one concerns the storage of the entities produced during the software project; the second one concerns the control of the activities performed for the production / change of these entities. Work space support can be seen as subsuming most of the later dimension. Indeed, work space is the place where activities take place; controlling the activities, to a large extent, is work space control. This short paper presents our concurrent engineering experience in Dassault Systèmes, as well as our new approach in the modeling and support of concurrent engineering for large teams.
