The reflective practice of design teams

TL;DR: A new description method, based on Schon's theory of reflective practice, is developed, which allows a concise description of a design project in which the elements vital to the understanding of the design progress are conserved.

A framework for the requirements of capturing, storing and reusing information and knowledge in engineering design

TL;DR: The approach of this work is to consider the intended reuse and level of application for knowledge in order to determine the requirements for its acquisition, and an overall framework for the requirements of capturing, storing and reusing information and knowledge in engineering design is generated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Capturing design rationale

TL;DR: The paper describes the main features of the tool, by means of a real design example from the company, and compares it with other IBIS-based software to identify and explain how it addresses problems that seem to have made earlier tools unsuitable for routine use by designers.

Process models in design and development

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an organizing framework that clarifies the topology of the literature on these models and thereby relates the main perspectives that have been developed, including contexts, advantages, and limitations.

‘Signposting’, A Parameter-driven Task-based Model of the Design Process

TL;DR: In this article, a parameter-based model of design is proposed, based on the assumption that a design process can be constructed from a predefined set of tasks, supported by knowledge of possible tasks in which the confidence in key design parameters is used as a basis for identifying, or signposting, the next task.
