Multiple engineers and designers can work concurrently on the schematic, the constraints and the layout of a PCB, accelerating design and optimizing collaboration and resource management.
Xpedition Enterprise
Concurrent Design
- Work simultaneously, no need to partition
- Edits appear dynamically to all read-only users
- Project Server manages concurrent access
- Reduce total design time
- Minimize impact of frequent ECOs
Schematic Design
Xpedition supports multiple engineers simultaneously designing the same schematic. All edits apear dynamicaly to all concurrent users.
Constraint Managment
Work concurrently with other users who are editing the same constraint set, wheter on the front-end or back-end.
PCB Layout
Tesms of layout designers can simultaneously edit the same printed circuit board and work in a collaborative manner. No need to partition and reassemble.
System Design Concurrency
Concurrently define a multi-board system with multiple engineers and start defining individual associated boards while the system definition is still in process.
Concurrent Verification
Virtually prototype a design in-process with concurrent verification of performance and manufacturability. Results are visible within the authoring tool for faster review and design updates.
Competitive advantage with concurrent engineering
Accelerate design time, reduce product development costs, and improve product quality with real-time concurrent engineering. With Xpedition technology, not only can all design tasks occur simultaneously but multiple individuals can contribute simultaneously to each task.
This white paper describes how tool- and flow-based concurrency can be used throughout the design process, including system design, schematic design, constraint management, and PCB layout.
