INTEGRATION OF ENGINEERING APPLICATIONS SHOULD BE VIEWED AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE GREATER FUNCTIONALITY TO THE ENVIRONMENT BY SUPPLYING NEW SERVICES AND RESOURCES. IF PROTOCOLS AND INTERFACES CAN BE DEFINED THAT ALLOW OTHER TOOLS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE FUNCTIONALITY PROVIDED BY THE NEW APPLICATIONS, POWERFUL INTEGRATED ENVIRONMENTS FOR SYSTEM OR PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT COULD RESULT. THE SERVICE BASED APPROACH IS DIRECTED AT MAKING SUCH ENVIRONMENTS POSSIBLE. THIS PAPER DESCRIBES ATTEMPTS AT DEVELOPING A SERVICED-BASED INTEGRATION PLATFORM FOR CONCURRENT ENGINEERING AND HOW THIS COULD ALSO BE APPLIED TO SOFTWARE ENGINEERING ENVIRONMENTS.
