Excerpt from Development of Tools to Represent Deisgn Procedures
This paper is based upon the premise that in practice, design procedures are rather methodical and can therefore be studied and improved. We present model-based approaches toward understanding such design activities in order to improve design practices. Several modeling methodologies are presented and compared on their ability to capture relevant information about design activities and their ability to provide insight into the performance of design processes. A detailed description of these models and examples of each are provided for comparison. These models contribute significantly to our understanding of current design practice and yield to analytical tools which facilitate formulation and implementation of improved procedures. In the course of the discussion, limitations of the currently used models are identified, and an enhanced representation is proposed to overcome these limitations.
International competition has heightened the need to develop high quality products which can compete in the global marketplace. As a result of this increased competition, the pace of product development has quickened, forcing manufacturers into an era in which continuous quality improvement is a matter of survival, not simply competitive advantage. As the time scale of the product life cycle decreases and the demand for quality increases, one area of attention has been improving products through better designs. The integrative and definitive nature of the design activity is responsible for determining as much as 80% of a product's functionality and cost The high leverage available during the design activity can completely determine a product's success or failure. Design's central role as an important engineering and business concern has recently gained attention in companies and universities around the world.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the highly influential role design plays in product development by studying how practitioners approach design procedures and how these processes can be represented in a way that both reveals their strengths and weaknesses and suggests improvements. The techniques and insights offered in this book fill an important gap in the literature on design and provide much-needed tools for improving the design process. It positions design as a critical factor in the development of new products, and one that has an outsized impact on the viability of any product in the marketplace. The author examines the historical development of three commonly used design activity models and surveys them critically to identify any shortcomings. The iterative nature of the design process is a central focus, and the author presents various models and examples that reveal how information flows during design procedures. One type of quantitative model based on the precedence matrix is presented in an example. The book closes with an enhanced representation that seeks to overcome the limitations of existing models by incorporating a measure of interdependence that more accurately reflects real-world design processes. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781332258093_0
