Interdisciplinary approach is seen as solution for more comprehensive designs. However, interdisciplinary knowledge sharing encounters many issues, due to disciplinary ontology and human subjective ...

KNOWLEDGE SHARING OBSERVATION AND MODELLING IN DISTRIBUTED DESIGN TEAMS

Horrigue, A.H.; Choulier, D.; Boudouh, T. // 2006
Knowledge sharing is a critical factor for collaborative design process. The effectiveness of interactions between agents in collaborative design teams depends on the effectiveness of knowledge ...

Modelling design processes to improve robustness

Chalupnik, M- J.; Eckert, C. M.; Clarkson, P. J. // 2006
The success of any manufacturing company depends ultimately on the effectiveness and efficiency of ist product development. However, "few development projects fully deliver on their early ...

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT ONTOLOGY IN TRACEABILITY IMPLEMENTATION FRAMEWORK

Pavković, N.; Štorga, M. // 2006
We argue a need for a design projects’ repository as the core for supporting, sharing and reuse of design knowledge. Such software system should enable reusing the knowledge of a given domain, and be ...

Boolean Searches

The following examples demonstrate some search strings that use boolean operators:

  • design community
    Find rows that contain at least one of the two words.
  • +design +community
    Find rows that contain both words.
  • +design community
    Find rows that contain the word “design”, but rank rows higher if they also contain “community”.
  • +design -community
    Find rows that contain the word “design” but not “community”.
  • +design ~community
    Find rows that contain the word “design”, but if the row also contains the word “community”, rate it lower than if row does not.
  • +design +(>community <decisions)
    Find rows that contain the words “design” and “community”, or “design” and “decisions” (in any order), but rank “design community” higher than “design decisions”
  • design*
    Find rows that contain words such as “design”, “designs”, “designing”, or “designer”.
  • "some words"
    Find rows that contain the exact phrase “some words” (for example, rows that contain “some words of wisdom” but not “some noise words”). Note that the " characters that enclose the phrase are operator characters that delimit the phrase. They are not the quotation marks that enclose the search string itself.
