Knowledge Base Repository
In addition to research papers, the Design Society is developing several valuable resources for those interested in the study of design. These include a repository of PhD theses, a library of case studies and transcripts of design activities, and an archive of our newsletters. Please note that these resources are accessible exclusively to Design Society members.

Abstract:
The vehicle industry is experiencing an increased product complexity based on the development of electronics. Systems that earlier were stand-alone are now dependent on each other and design changes in one system are therefore reflected and must be considered in other systems. One trend in the development of embedded and distributed systems is model based development (MBD). MBD through the use of CAD-tools permeates most organizations nowadays, but MBD of multi-disciplinary systems like distributed control systems is less common. The use of MBD is unequally utilized in different organizations. Three drivers for introducing MBD are discussed and suggested: maturity, standardization and complexity of the product.
