Abstract:
In order to reduce ”the time to market” of the new electronic product, an integrated software environment it is a sine qua non condition. Such an environment it is possible to be realized using a Server Based Computing Technology solution. Starting with a metaframe application it was implemented an integrated environment witch includes several CAD/CAM/CAE programs distributed on a Server Farm. Working with a metaframe application, the design activities of a product can be done faster (the co-workers can simultaneously run an application on a powerful server, using "thin clients’ resources”).
