             abstract = "The development of products consists of a process that involves 
                         knowledge and several functional areas and presents a high degree 
                         of complexity and iteration in its execution. It is characterized 
                         by an intense flow of information, by a great number of people 
                         involved, and even companies working together in an inter-firm 
                         collaboration. The literature presents several models and 
                         approaches for characterizing the new product development process. 
                         However, they usually do not adequately represent its dynamics. 
                         The present work aims at characterizing the product development 
                         process based on the nature of its elements covered by the 
                         literature. Besides, it is also the purpose of the article to 
                         identify how the interaction among them occurs. A representative 
                         conceptual model of this process is proposed within two levels of 
                         integration. The theoretical model is based on six dimensions 
                         (strategic, organizational, technical, planning, control and 
                         operational) integrated in the levels of structural and 
                         operational. It also identifies what the elements that compose the 
                         operational dimension are and how the interaction between them 
                         might be characterized. In addition, some properties that affect 
                         the new product development process are outlined. The conceptual 
                         model presented comes and meets the needs of a more adequate 
                         representation of the dynamics of new product development through 
                         the integration of different perspectives and helps the 
                         understanding of it. The paper also emphasizes the need for new 
                         studies with a detailed analysis of the interaction and the 
                         integration of the elements here presented.",
