General Concept
CEDESK is a tool to facilitate co-located collaborative model-based conceptual design for complex engineering systems. This type of tool is also known as data exchange for concurrent engineering studies.
More complete documentation can be found here.
Multidisciplinary design teams can use CEDESK to facilitate their work together by building shared parametric models of their system of interest.
