Current design models and frameworks describe various overlapping fragments of designing. However, little effort exists in consolidating these fragments into an integrated model. We propose a model of designing that integrates product and process facets of designing by combining activities, outcomes, requirements, and solutions. Validation of the model using video protocols of design sessions demonstrates that all the constructs are used naturally by designers but often not to the expected level, which hinders the variety and resulting novelty of the concepts developed in these sessions. To resolve this, a prescriptive framework for supporting design for variety and novelty is proposed and plans for its implementation are created.

Abstract A satisfaction-driven game theoretic approach is developed with application to team-based concurrent product and process design (CPPD). This team approach for CPPD is based upon optimization formalism in which the design team is responsible to optimize overall product functionality (or performance) and the manufacture team pursues to minimize total manufacturing cost. This dual-team model characterizes the respective aspects of product design and process design. In particular, the preference of each team against a design configuration is characterized through the application of fuzzy set theory, whereby the method of Design for Satisfaction (DfS) can be applied to seek the most favorite design that best fulfills the team goal. Based on the strategic team paradigms derived from game theory, fuzzy set operators are used to aggregate satisfaction metrics of two teams. As a result, three team design models plus related algorithms are developed to reveal typical team interactions in the context of design computations. An illustrative example is worked out to demonstrate the satisfaction-driven team design models.

Designing large, innovative ships is a complex assignment and an interesting one for every company: Ship designers are capable of supporting the client’s requests and deliver a design quicker than any other related industry involved in the design of complex objects. However, at the same time it is felt that the industry could improve their innovative output by applying a more focused method to design these innovative and complex ships. Existing methods either mitigate the complex relations between systems of a ship, or concentrate on the design of a single object. The design models evaluated in this paper, amongst others, the design spiral and system engineering, do not describe these important aspects of the ship-design cycle: To evolve beyond the current innovations, current design models do not suffice. The model presented in this paper takes the complex relations through different levels of decomposition into account and presents the possibility to track and support change during the design process. In future research, the model will be applied and developed further towards approaches and tools to support innovative design.

Digital Entrepreneurship

To be successful in today’s rapid and increasing changes, innovation is the only option for maintaining growth and competitiveness. Organizations actually need to become “smart” to confront the growing customer needs, and changing markets. Digital entrepreneurship (DE) is perceived as a key pillar for innovation. However, there are a number of concerns surrounding smart organization (SO), DE, and technological innovation (TI), and how they are related is complex and important to understand in this digital age. While the extant literature presents several models for innovation, however, these studies are considered to be incomplete as they do not emphasize the relation between these variables. Based on conducting a deep literature review, this study proposes a conceptual model for SO focusing on TI (i.e., Product and process). This integrated model argues that SO’s components namely business intelligence, creative orientation, environment understanding, adaptation, and continuous learning significantly contribute to TI. In addition, it proposes that DE mediates the relationship between the SO and TI. Hypotheses development and suggesting further areas of research are discussed.

Spelling is a window into a student's individual language system and, therefore, canprovide clues into the student's understanding, use, and integration of underlyinglinguistic skills. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) should be involved in improvingstudents' literacy skills, including spelling, though frequently available measures ofspelling do not provide adequate information regarding critical underlying linguistic skillsthat contribute to spelling. This paper outlines a multilinguistic, integrated model of wordstudy (Masterson & Apel, 2007) that highlights the important influences of phonemicawareness, orthographic pattern awareness, semantic awareness, morphologicalawareness and mental graphemic representations on spelling. An SLP can analyze anindividual's misspellings to identify impairments in specific linguistic components andthen develop an individualized, appropriate intervention plan tailored to a child's uniquelinguistic profile, thus maximizing intervention success.
