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:
Within the distributed development of highly complex products, complexity among involved individuals is a major issue. In order to allow transparency and consistency of information in between individuals and their Engineering Objects (EOs), Parameter Management is discussed as an approach which functions as an intermediator of information on basis of engineering parameters. Based on case studies in the automotive industry, the paper describes the underlying framework of the approach, addresses differences to Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and describes structures used to purposefully organize and cross-link parameter information.
