    Notes: Abstract This research is aimed at structuring complex design projects in order to develop better products more quickly. We use a matrix representation to capture both the sequence of and the technical relationships among the many design tasks to be performed. These relationships define the “technical structure” of a project, which is then analyzed in order to find alternative sequences and/or definitions of the tasks. Such improved design procedures offer opportunities to speed development progress by streamlining the inter-task coordination. After using this technique to model design processes in several organizations, we have developed a design management strategy which focuses attention on the essential information transfer requirements of a technical project.

    Generalised models of design interation using signal flow graphs (1997)
    Springer
    Research in engineering design 9 (1997), S. 112-123 
    Details
    ISSN: 1435-6066
    Keywords: Design iteration ; Design process modeling ; Product development lead time ; Signal flow graphs
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Production Engineering, Mining and Metallurgy, Traffic Engineering, Precision Mechanics , Technology
    Notes: Abstract Changing customer preferences, demand for quality, and new technologies have led to very short product life cycles. This requires firms to have short product development lead times while keeping product costs low and quality high in order to stay competitive. In this context, we focus on improved understanding of time-consuming design iterations. We are creating tools for modeling product development projects in order to predict the performance of product development organisations. In this paper, signal flow graphs are presented as a flexible tool for design process modeling, and illustrated using an industrial example. Analysis of the model allows computation of the probability distribution of lead time and identification of the key drivers of lead time.
