Concurrent Design Facility (CDF) is an effective and efficient manner to implement Concurrent Engineering methodology. In aerospace engineering education, CDF is invaluable to lecturers by enabling the entire student team to gain cross-discipline skills and at the same time stay at the cutting edge of technology. Establishment of CDF is always consuming much money on hardware and software. This paper presents a low cost CDF framework which is suitable for aerospace engineering education in class room based on cloud computing. An important aspect of CDF is collaboration between multidisciplinary specialists or virtual specialists in the environment of engineering education. Collaboration in CDF requirement some dedicated hardware or software to exchange file, manage knowledge, collaborative work on writing report, and even remote communicate with other work teams in traditional means. Emergence and development of cloud computing have made above-mentioned requirements become very easy to be fulfilled. Some public cloud computing servers, such as Google Drive, SkyDrive, Dropbox, Mendeley, can be used in CDF for education to save investment on hardware and software related to data, file, and information exchange. Google Talk and Skype can be used to remotely communicate with work team at other location. This CDF framework has many benefits, include low cost on hardware, software and human, reduce preparation time, and easy to deploy in classroom education.

Set-Based Concurrent Engineering (SBCE) is a comprehensive approach to achieve efficiency in product development by providing guidelines to align the development activities. Given a certain range in a design problem, a set of design solutions is defined. Eliminating infeasible regions gradually narrows the set down to a working solution. Similar to platform-based development, SBCE further aims to reuse design knowledge from past development efforts. Although they share the goal of design reuse, there is a fundamental difference between SBCE and platform-based design. The SBCE design process produces one solution while the creation and use of a platform produces a product family. This paper elaborates an approach for platform concept development. It uses set-based concurrent engineering and its principles to develop a platform based on functions and design solutions while preserving the bandwidth. It shows how function-means trees and trade-off curves can represent solution spaces. Further, these spaces are narrowed down to manageable and desirable size to represent a product platform in line with current technology and available manufacturing capabilities. The approach is illustrated with a case from the aerospace industry showing how a manufacturer of parts for a jet engine can develop comprehensive concepts for a platform. The design space is narrowed down using desired bandwidth and compatibility between design solutions. While the approach has proven feasible in the test case, it requires manufacturing and technology development to produce trade-off curves. This implicitly requires technology development and manufacturing development to precede product development. Alternatively, product development, production development and technology development need to be perfectly coordinated in a concurrent manner.

Efficient project management is necessary to solve the various problems associated with the completion of a project. Measuring the project's progress and performance accurately is very important for managing projects and for detecting the factors limiting completion of the project. We have investigated the work performance at the beginning of the each work on the project. As a result, it has become clear that work performance at the start of the work is not 100% efficient, as can be seen in a performance S-curve. This suggests that the project could be completed more quickly if work performance could be raised at the beginning of the work. In this study we attempt to raise the work performance when the project is initiated. We have constructed a trial system for collecting knowledge and distributing the knowledge to the staff, based on information about faults or defects on past projects and important information about the project being undertaken. By providing appropriate knowledge and applying critical thinking, project worker productivity levels will be raised and enhanced. As a result, it will be possible to manage multiple projects, even if workers are taking charge of two or more projects and subsystems at the same time.
