Since the influential work of Dickerson (1969), there has been considerable discussion of design of crossbreeding experiments, but little detailed treatment of optimisation. Recently, Cunningham and Connolly (1989) and Soelkner and James (1990) have discussed this question, but have used different optimality criteria. Connolly and Cunningham used the sum of sampling variances of estimators, whi...

This paper focuses on design criteria for public e-services. The paper challenges traditional lists of usability criteria supporting design and evaluation of IT-systems. Traditional criteria within the field of human-computer interaction are perceived as too limited and an expanded view of the communication and business process is proposed. Within this expanded view, existing usability criteria...

"Intuitive Use" is increasingly mentioned as being a requirement for product design. However, it has not been established as a scientific term in the HCI community so far. Even though this disparity exists, practitioners need to know how intuitive use can be defined, how it can be measured, and how it can be designed. In usability engineering, several design criteria are discussed. But, to what...

Design to Criteria scheduling is the process of custom building a schedule to meet dynamic client goal criteria using a task model that describes alternate ways to achieve tasks and sub tasks Formerly Design to Criteria scheduling relied on simple expected value characterizations of method outcomes The recent addition of uncertainty to the task model and its ubiquitous application in Design to ...

Control design is a rich problem which requires that many issues such as load disturbances and set-point responses, model uncertainty, and measurement noise are taken into account. These issues are discussed for design of PI and PID controllers. The purpose is to give insight into the different criteria and their trade-offs, not to give specific tuning methods.
