Representation and Reuse of Design Knowledge: An Application for Sales Call Support
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a Bayesian network representation of the function-behavior-structure (FBS) framework [10], which is used to guide salespersons through conceptual design tasks in lead qualification situations. After we outline the lead qualification situation and state the need of design support for salespersons, a review of the related works shows the necessity for a knowledge representation, which explicitly addresses the uncertainty of design decisions. In the remainder we propose a representation, which is capable of this, and close with an application example for sales call support.

A Call for a Backward Design to Knowledge Translation
Despite several calls to support evidence-informed policy-making, variations in uptake of evidence into policy persist. This editorial brings together and builds on previous Knowledge Translation (KT) frameworks and theories to present a simple, yet, holistic approach for promoting evidence-informed policies. The proposed conceptual framework is characterized by its impact-oriented approach and...

This paper presents the development of an Intelligent Cavity Layout Design System (ICLDS) for multiple cavity injection moulds. The system is intended to assist mould designers in cavity layout design at concept design stage. The complexities and principles of cavity layout design as well as various dependencies in injection mould design are introduced. The knowledge in cavity layout design is ...
متن کاملReflecting on Backward Design for Knowledge Translation; Comment on “A Call for a Backward Design to Knowledge Translation”
In a recent Editorial for this journal, El-Jardali and Fadlallah proposed a new framework for Knowledge Translation (KT) in healthcare. Many such frameworks already exist; thus, new entrants to the field must be scrutinized in regard to their unique contributions to advancing understanding and practice. The El-Jardali and Fadlallah framework focuses on policy-level discussions, a relatively und...
متن کاملBackwards Design or looking Sideways? Knowledge Translation in the Real World; Comment on “A Call for a Backward Design to Knowledge Translation”
El-Jardali and Fadllallah provide an excellent summary of the many dimensions of knowledge use, and the breath of issues and activities that must be considered if knowledge is to be put into practice. However, reliance on a continuum (rather than a cyclical, multidirectional, systems) model creates a number of limitations, particularly when promoting evidence-informed action in the areas of hea...
متن کاملKnowledge Representation and Reasoning in the Design of Composite Systems
Our interest is in the design process that spans the gap between the requirements acquisition process and the implementation process, in which the basic architecture of a system is defined, and functions are allocated to software, hardware, and human agents. We call this process composite system design. Our goal is an interactive model of composite system design incorporating deficiency-driven ...
