Managing requirements as the core of multi-disciplinary product development

TL;DR: A methodology that brings existing approaches of requirements management together in a reasonable context is shown that supports communication between different disciplines and therefore helps identifying important requirements and relations between requirements from different domains.

User Psychology: Re-assessing the Boundaries of a Discipline

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that technology has become so pervasive an aspect of modern life that its relationship with human mind deserves the status of a basic research question and its own discipline Psychology of the computer user should not be the handmaiden of technologists.

Structural design in an automated building system

TL;DR: In this paper, an Intelligent Parametric Templates (IPT) for structural design within an Automated Building System (ABS) is presented, which demonstrates that comprehensive automation of general and detailed structural design is feasible for rectangular plan building types.

A comparative study of changes across the lifecycle of complex products in a variant and a customised industry

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on investigating the characteristics of engineering changes and identifying the main reasons for changes arising during the different phases of the lifecycle of complex engineering products, and find that change requests peak during the manufacturing phase and indicate that the motivation for change varies throughout a product's lifecycle.

A web-based environment for documentation and sharing of engineering design knowledge

TL;DR: The results indicate that the ontological knowledge-base can be used to prompt engineers to document important product development information, increase understanding of the design process, provide a means to intuitively retrieve information, and seamlessly access distributed information.
