In conjunction with related development and validation activities, this Technical Memorandum should be regarded as a mechanism for reaching consensus prior to building the standard itself.
The Technical Memorandum provides the basis for creating interoperable Concurrent Design (CD) centers across the European space community.
Enabling and supporting joint real-time collaborative design activities involving multiple CD centers.
These software implementations allow a team of engineers to collaborate on the design of a complex system such as a satellite, launcher, an oil rig or a building.
The Open Concurrent Design Tool (OCDT) is the successor of the OCDS OCDT is a client / server software package developed under a European Space Agency contract to enable efficient multi-disciplinary concurrent engineering of space systems in the early life cycle phases.
The server is able to support concurrent teams of more than 20 users and synchronising their engineering model content twice a minute or faster.
