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:
Documenting and communicating decisions is paramount during the system architecture development of Advanced Systems. Reporting design decisions properly is important since they allow decisions to remain traceable. Collaboration platforms could significantly help documenting and communicating design decisions. Developers however lack methodological support for using them. We held semi-structured interviews with company representatives to identify problems in these activities. In this paper we report our findings and use them to develop a preliminary support methodology.
