Adam,
We will have an article, "Rapid Prototyping Accelerates the Design
Process," published in the November 18, 1999 issue of Machine Design
magazine. It concentrates on techniques for accelerating the early,
conceptual stages of the development cycle.
I would suggest that you broaden your scope to rapid prototyping, rather
than just stereolithography. Time-saving opportunities are not limited to
just this one technology.
