INTEGRATING OPERATIONAL COMPLEXITY IN DESIGN PROCESSES AND IMPROVING DESIGN RISK IDENTIFICATION
Lauche, K.; Busby, J.S.; Bennett, S.A. // 2004
Simplifying strategies are useful and often necessary to make the design process tractable. They are also a generic human reaction to cope with complexity. Yet if a design is modified or put to use ...
INTEROPERABILITY ISSUES AMONG CAD SYSTEMS: A BENCHMARKING STUDY OF 7 COMMERCIAL MCAD SOFTWARE
Gerbino, S.; Brondi, A. // 2004
In the actual design contest, where many different types of expertise need to be integrated in the design process, the interoperability among the used computer-aided tools is a requirement. With ...
Knowledge-based shoe design process
Semenenko, A.; Krikler, R. // 2004
In the early 90’s, JOSEPH PINE introduced the fundamental concept of mass customization [PIN–93], which in opposite to the traditional serial production, is a customer driven approach of producing ...
MANAGING DESIGN PROCESS OF INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTS
Suistoranta, Seppo // 2004
This study focuses on the design process of industrial products, which are understood as technical systems that are used in business-ta-business market. In industrial companies, a process-driven ...
MODELLING THE PROCESS OF CREATING A MUTUAL UNDERSTANDING IN DISTRIBUTED DESIGN TEAMS
Ruiz-Dominguez, G.; Boujut, J-F. // 2004
Cooperation is an important issue in design teamwork. This paper is an attempt to contribute a theoretical framework through the modelling of the process of creating a mutual understanding during ...
NEW IDEAS FOR KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT IN PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
Weber, C.; Pohl, M.; Steinbach, M. // 2004
Complex product development projects require the handling of information/knowledge from three domains. While product and project related information is at least formally modelled, design process ...
ONE FOOT IN JAIL: MITIGATING THE INFLUENCE OF ERRORS ON THE OUTCOME OF DESIGN PROCESSES FOR INDUSTRIAL PLANT
Mayer, H.; Stark, H. L.; Ford, R. // 2004
From the perspective of practicing designers of industrial plant, there is a need for design science to acknowledge the fact that a mountain of decisions has to be got through, while minimising ...
Orientation support in product development
Dünser, T. // 2004
This paper presents instructions to support finding the best design step sequence for product development. Aiming at the detailed navigation questions of practical development, it can be seen as an ...

RE-DESIGNING ARCHITECTURAL ARTEFACTS: A BUILDING'S LEARNING PROCESS
Lindekens, J.; Depuydt, J. // 2004
The relevance and use of a taxonometric design method in architectural education is discussed. Based on and nourished by the (architectural) (re-)design process, which is considered a complex ...
REACHING THE COST TARGET - CURRENT STATUS IN SMEs
Nissl, A.; Lindemann, U. // 2004
Many companies apply the method of Target Costing in order to offer products with an optimal cost-performance ratio. Due to this method, every decision within the product development process has to ...
REALITIES IN INTERDISCIPLINARY SYSTEMS DESIGN
Kaljas, Frid; Kallo, Rommi; Reedik, Vello // 2004
It is obvious that the integration of different technologies into interdisciplinary systems cannot be treated as their simple summing but as a way of compensating their mutual weaknesses and ...
SELECTING AND COMBINING METHODS FOR COMPLEX PROBLEM SOLVING WITHIN THE DESIGN PROCESS
Franke, H.-J.; Deimel, M. // 2004
The paper describes two approaches to select easily methods for the support of single working steps within the design process. Further, it is essential for the desired support of the entire process, ...

THE BENEFITS OF PREDICTING CHANGE IN COMPLEX PRODUCTS: APPLICATION AREAS OF A DSM-BASED PREDICTION TOOL
Jarratt, T.; Eckert, C.; Clarkson, P.J. // 2004
Most designers struggle to fully understand a complex product. Throughout the entire life cycle of a product engineers are frequently required to predict how changes could propagate. Currently, few ...
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.
