Extendible hashing is a data access method for external storage, which
may offer the performance benefits of hashing, while allowing smooth
incremental file expansion and in-order access.  Storage performance
of extendible hashing turns out to be related to binary tries.

			MS Thesis Presentation

Concurrent Engineering (CE) has already initiated a cultural change in
the design and manufacturing of new products.  CE is expected to lead
to better engineered and faster built products.  But, in order for a
company to take advantage of the power of CE, the members of product
development teams have to be educated about the CE methodology,
including issues such as how decisions made about one aspect of a
design can affect other aspects.  They also have to be educated about
the usefulness of the tools that can be used for CE, and the need for
their integration.  Those tools include intelligent agents which can
be used to offer design suggestions and criticisms.

This talk will introduce CE concepts and will define those ingredients
of CE which are essential.  It will also discuss the project to build
a CE demonstration system to be used for educational purposes. The
system, called Sneakers, provides a design environment and
demonstrates the essential aspects of CE, in a way that they can be
intuitively understood.  This research was supported by a grant from
the Design For Manufacture Institute at Digital Equipment Corporation.
