Coordination in CE Systems: An Approach Based on the Management of Dependences between Activities
1997
Concurrent Engineering - Research and Applications
Coordination is a crucial problem in CE systems and it is neither easy to obtain nor to maintain. Our work is an attempt to develop a general model for coordination which can be adapted for some situations in the context of CE. For this purpose, the coordination de nition developed by Malone 25 has been adopted. Coordination is then de ned as the process of managing dependencies between activities. In this context, a theoretical model is presented that allows one to determine how to model an
