Concurrent, interactive engineering design and analysis has the potential for substantially reducing product development time and enhancing US competitiveness. Traditionally, engineering design has involved running engineering analysis codes to simulate and evaluate the response of a product or process, writing the output data to file, and viewing or ``post-processing`` the results at a later time. The emergence of high-performance computer architectures, virtual reality, and advanced telecommunications in the mid 90`s promises to dramatically alter the way designers, manufacturers, engineers and scientists will do their work.
