This article describes a design and implementation of the Distributed Engineering Application System over Internet using the Web Service. Though these Engineering Application Systems work very well in an intranet environment, attempting to use them over the Internet presents two significant problems. First, the systems do not interoperate. While they all dealt with objects, they disagreed over the details. Secondly, and more important, their focus on RPC-style communication typically led to tightly coupled systems built around the explicit invocations of object methods. Also, the integrated system of the design and analysis process and data representation in the product design application domain is applied in the Distributed Engineering Web Service System. This system can be extended for other design and analysis views in product design.
