Beyond frames: A formal human-compatible representation of ideas in design using non-genetic ad-hoc and volatile class memberships and corresponding architecture for idea operators

Spitas, Christos // 2013
This paper proposes a formal human-compatible representation of ideas in design using ad-hoc and volatile class memberships and corresponding architecture for idea operators. The proposed theory ...

Beyond models and decisions: Situating design through generative functions

Hatchuel, Armand; Reich, Yoram; Le Masson, Pascal; Weil, Benoit; Kazakçi, Akin // 2013
This paper aims to situate Design by comparison to scientific modeling and optimal Decision. We introduce “generative functions” characterizing each of these activities. We formulate inputs, outputs ...

Bridging the discrepancy between reflective practice and systematic form generation approaches

Babapour, Maral; Rahe, Ulrike  // 2013

Context, collaboration and complexity in designing: The pivotal role of cognitive artifacts

Subrahmanian, Eswaran; Reich, Yoram; Krishnan, Sruthi // 2013
Designing progresses through continuous refinement of models. In today's design practice, these models get created and refined by multi-cultural, multidisciplinary teams that speak different ...

Continuous design FMEA – Proposal for a new perspective on FMEA

Andrade, Luiz Fernando Segalin de // 2013
This paper presents a method that assists in concept evaluation during the conceptual design phase, called the continuous FMEA tool. The use of this tool allows for better execution of integrated ...

Curriculum differentiation for masters in product development

Jacoby, Alexis; Baelus, Chris // 2013
Based on the input from industrial competence centres and consultative group meetings with academics and practitioners, the product development department of the faculty of design sciences has ...

Design and business model experimentation

Petersen, Soren Ingomar // 2013
A chasm currently exists between business and design, which involves transforming strategic business objectives and market opportunities into actionable design criteria. Poor feedback loops from new ...

Design based entrepreneurship

Møller Nielsen, Louise; Wikström, Anders; Tollestrup, Christian // 2013
Designers are often recognized as natural entrepreneurs, due to their creative skills and competences in the idea-generation and product development processes. A number of studies shows that creative ...

Design for privacy – Design Tool to Map Perceptions, Conflicts and Strategies of Privacy in Mobile Technology Development

Schneider, Diana; Kornberger, Tanja // 2013
This paper investigates the area of tension of privacy versus technologically enabled ubiquity, in order to align both into improved product and service design solutions. Through an iterative process ...

Designers’ promises or users’ expectations?

Gabelloni, Donata; Fantoni, Gualtiero // 2013
Several frameworks describe the design process, such as the FBS model and its extensions. Some of them present a designer-centric view, while the most recent ones are more based on the user’s point ...

Designing experienceable systems by using microcontroller based platforms

De Grande, Guido; Baelus, Chris; De Roeck, Dries; Van Campenhout, Lukas // 2013

We show equivalence of design structure matrix (shortly DSM) and axiomatic design (shortly AD). First, DSM is defined as a set of permissible ranges of both functions and constraints. We study ...

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.
