This paper describes a design process for custom wearable systems produced in an academic setting. A set of 245 wearable design defects from two distinct periods separated by six years in time is presented. These data identify aspects of the process requiring significant developer effort, which we show using an Orthogonal Defect Classification scheme. A comparison of defect attribute distributi...

The satisfying of human needs through designing technical objects requires the compromisation and settling of various conflicting criteria at different stages of the engineering design process. The need for back and forth adjustment of design specifications, concept finding, and design embodiment can be considered to be carried out in a telescopic review fashion. The present study is concerned ...

poly(vinylidene fluoride) (pvdf) nanofibers were prepared via electrospinning process. several different factors influence on this process and application of experimental design for its optimization is of great importance. the central composite design (ccd) was used for planning and optimizing of the experiments and also, the analysis of variance (anova) was employed for the statistical validat...

functions in landscape design include values in design and management process to satisfy moral and environmental needs that current attitudes see that as open space design by natural and man-made elements, while the basic intellectual layers related to human as the principles of environmental design have been forgotten. human urban knowledge seeks to meet in health, biological, psychological, s...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to engage in a thought experiment, exploring the use of Wikipedia or similar content-malleable systems for the review and dissemination of academic knowledge. Design/methodology/approach – By looking at other sources, the paper considers the current state of the academic peer-review process, discusses Wikipedia and reflects on dynamic content creation and ...

background: communication is the most important parts of the educational process, which aims to transfer or exchange of ideas.it would be provided appropriately if the academic members had the communication skills .considering the important role of academic members in educational process, in this study the knowledge, attitude and performance of isfahan health school academic members towards eff...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the best practices in web site redesign the authors established for its two interconnected parts, the web development process and web design. The paper demonstrates how best practices were applied to coordinate a library web site redesign project and to engineer the web site for optimum usability, resulting in the creation of a new improved web ...

The increasing mobility due to Bologna process forces the academic partners to increase the inter-operability of their administrative processes, by interacting through a collaborative networks and therefore acting as an academic virtual organization. To facilitate the communication and the comprehension of the administrative processes between the components of the CN, the Business Process Model...

Different complex features in web applications have raised new issues on the modeling approach. Web designers should define complex processes in web applications and provide a clear view of the application domain. In this paper, we propose a design model called UEWDM, which applies UML Profiles as the graphical notation in the modeling stage. UEWDM cope with conceptual design by divided it into...
