Dissertation
Development of a computer mediated multidisciplinary design protocol and its application to the early architectural design stages.
TL;DR: The research provided a deep understanding of the concept stage design processes and the effect of technology on design activities and it contributed in providing an enabling context for pre Building Information Modelling collaboration; hence, the research has the potential to improve the final design solutions for buildings.
Collaborative design support : workshops to stimulate interaction and knowledge exchange between practitioners
TL;DR: The Design Research Methodology (DRM) is used for this research project to observe, analyze and find possibilities to stimulate interaction and knowledge exchange between Architects and Contractors in a Collaborative Design scene.

On the General Evaluation of Customer Requirements During Conceptual Design
TL;DR: In this article, the relative importance of these recommended items, without regard to the product, is evaluated by using the pairs comparison method and the weighting factors for all recommended items are then calculated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and Testing of a Design Protocol for Computer Mediated Multidisciplinary Collaboration during the Concept Stages with Application to the Built Environment
TL;DR: The aim of such a protocol is to enhance the conceptual design activities by guiding the multidisciplinary design team through the conceptual stage, highlight the importance of that stage and, eventually, provide the maximum information that will feed into later and more advanced design stages, aided by tangible user interfaces (TUIs) mediated collaboration.
