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:
Laboratory studies and field studies make a major contribution to the validation of new design processes, methods and tools, but are confronted with limited transferability of validation results to corporate practice. In contrast, Live-Labs are validation environments that promise a high degree of external validity, but have not yet been able to systematically justify it. This article presents a procedure model and a categorisation framework that allows existing Live-Labs to be designed in such a way that the transferability of the results of Live-Lab studies to companies can be optimised.
