Goal of the TC 61 is the transfer of results developed in the context of the CRC 476 into industrial practice. Nevertheless, the TC 61 does not only aim at the evaluation of the achieved results in collaboration with a number of industrial partners, but also at further research concerning ontology-based integration of design data, simulation-supported planning of development processes, incremental consistency management, dynamic management of development and business processes, or service-oriented architectures and application integration.
