As the global trend of aging continues to intensify, there will inevitably be more complex and diverse aging-related problems. Designers have a responsibility explore possible outcomes future solve ageing-related problems that faced in future. Based on Future Cone, Double Diamond Model IDEO Method Cards, this study proposes new model guide design practice issues context aging. With aim validati...

Developments in mixed reality systems in the last decade have provided proof-of-concepts by means of technologytailored usage scenarios. Instead of focusing on the technology required for implementation, we have shifted our focus towards users, investigating the potential impact of such techniques on the actual work practice of industrial designers. Specific activities have been identified duri...

Designers see culture as a starting point for designing meaningful products that appeal to users. Culture has dynamic structure is constantly affected by social changes. This research examines how socio-cultural factors are perceived, analysed and transferred design students. The process aimed identify the complex or challenging on contrary clearly understandable aspects. In first stage of rese...

To fit the globalized economical environment, more and more SMEs have to develop networked and collaborative strategies. Such collaborative networks are mostly based on trusted and well known networks. At the international level, the European Union promotes clearly internet of services based solutions to support innovative business communities of organisations. The results accumulated by variou...

Purpose: Consideration of consumer opinion is a key success factor when it comes to developing a new product. However, businesses may lack suitable methods for this, and designers may lack practical training, with both situations meaning that firms are unable to precisely adopt consumer opinions. Moreover, consumer cognitions for a product are widely regarded as changeable and abstract. It is w...

Abstract Design neurocognition is an emerging research area that can provide insights into the black box of designers’ cognitive processes. However, work to date has focused on its own, without integrating this with other design measures. This paper presents results a pilot study which brings together designer output and assessment process followed in constrained prototyping activity comparing ...

From the perspective of technical suitability, this paper comparatively analyzed economical thickness and suitable exterior wall thermal insulation material with highest energy saving rate building envelop, attained relationship, curves, model material. The purpose is to provide useful evidences for residential buildings optimization design wall, so that architectural designers could be inspire...

There have been many systems developed that attempt to recover design and structure from code. In this paper, we present our experience with using one such tool, SoFi, to extract design structure from a large industrial system written in C. We compare the extracted structure to that which was intended by the designers of the system. We observe and categorize, for our system, the reasons why the...
