... In this Phase 2 report, the committee focuses on long-term issues and approaches that industry, government, and academia could use to achieve the AEE vision. DEFINING AN ADVANCED ENGINEERING ENVIRONMENT As defined in the Phase 1 report, AEEs are specific implementations of computational and communications systems that create integrated virtual and/or distributed environments2 linking researchers, technologists, designers, manufacturers, supplies, customers, and other users involved in mission-oriented, leading-edge engineering teams in iA complete list of the barriers identified in the Phase 1 report appears in Appendix B of this report (see Table B- 1)

... Table 1-1 lists the major components of an AEE and the most important characteristics for fulfilling the committee's AEE vision. TABLE 1-1 AEE System Components and Characteristics Computation, Modeling, and Software · multidisciplinary analysis and optimization · interoperability of tools, data, and models · system analysis and synthesis · collaborative distributed systems · software structures that can be easily reconfigured · deterministic and nondeterministic simulation methods Human-Centered Computing · adaptive human-machine interfaces · networked virtual environments · immersive systems · telepresence · intelligence augmentations Hardware and Networks · ultrafast computing systems · large high-speed storage devices · high-speed and intelligent networks aIntelligence augmentation is the ability of computer systems to enhance human performance in terms of decision making, problem solving, and other task-critical capabilities.

... Chapter 3 identifies AEE technologies that are available but underutilized, describes how AEE capabilities would improve specific aspects of the design process, describes future expectations based on the current state of AEE research and development, and identifies high-priority efforts that would improve the 15-year outlook. Chapter 4 expands on the barriers identified in the Phase 1 report and recommends ways to overcome them.
