Tools/philosophies such as PLM systems, Concurrent Engineering, Quality Function Deployment and Six Sigma are used by companies to deal with their product design problems. Use of computer graphics, particularly the interactive computer graphics, also found a significant role in today's product design and manufacturing efforts. Networked VR systems enable geographically dispersed collaborators to work on common projects. Low-cost scalable VR systems are available to simulate various design proposals before the physical prototypes are available. Today, theoretically it is known that the 3-dimensional (3D) interactive simulations are capable of replacing physical prototypes. Also, networked computers can provide realistic meeting conditions for long-distance collaborations. Both topics have been well studied by researchers. However, it is still not clear how this technology could be used effectively in real-life applications. The main focus of VR usage in collaborative design reviews and product assessment problems have been the visualization of information in both textual and graphical forms. Computer controlled visualization and communication systems on the other hand have greater potentials then their current usages. Design of intelligent assessment tools that observe and analyze the interaction between user and virtual scene or among users and their interactions with the virtual scene is relatively new topic in the literature. The present research program focuses on the development of Supervisory Support Systems to be embedded in VR based product design/testing and collaborative meeting systems. Particularly, User behaviour assessment, Management of collaborative VR and finally the Engineering change management topics will be investigated.

工具/哲学，如PLM系统，并行工程，质量功能部署和六西格玛被公司用来处理他们的产品设计问题。计算机图形学的使用，特别是交互式计算机图形学，在今天的产品设计和制造工作中也发挥了重要作用。网络VR系统使地理上分散的合作者能够在共同的项目上工作。低成本的可扩展VR系统可用于在物理原型可用之前模拟各种设计方案。今天，理论上已知的是，三维（3D）交互式模拟能够取代物理原型。此外，联网的计算机可以为远距离协作提供现实的会议条件。这两个问题都得到了研究人员的充分研究。然而，目前还不清楚这项技术如何在实际应用中有效地使用。在协同设计审查和产品评估问题中使用VR的主要焦点是文本和图形形式的信息可视化。另一方面，计算机控制的可视化和通信系统比其当前的用途具有更大的潜力。智能评估工具的设计，观察和分析用户和虚拟场景之间的交互或用户之间的交互和他们与虚拟场景是相对较新的课题在文献中。本研究项目的重点是开发嵌入在基于VR的产品设计/测试和协作会议系统中的监督支持系统。特别是，用户行为评估，协作VR的管理，最后的工程变更管理主题将进行调查。
