The importance of research and education in design continues to
grow. For example, government agencies are gradually increasing
funding of design research, and increasing numbers of engineering
schools are revising their curricula to emphasize design. This is
because of an increasing realization that design is part of the
wealth creation of a nation and needs to be better understood and
taught. The continuing globalization of industry and trade has
required nations to re-examine where their core contributions lie
if not in production efficiency. Design is a precursor to
manufacturing for phy- cal objects and is the precursor to
implementation for virtual objects. At the same time, the need for
sustainable development is requiring design of new products and
processes, and feeding a movement towards design - novations and
inventions. There are now three sources for design research: design
computing, design cognition and human-centered information
technology. The foun- tions for much of design computing remains
artificial intelligence with its focus on ways of representation
and on processes that support simulation and generation. Artificial
intelligence continues to provide an environm- tally rich paradigm
within which design research based on computational constructions
can be carried out. Design cognition is founded on concepts from
cognitive science, an even newer area than artificial intelligence.
It provides tools and methods to study human designers in both
laboratory and practice settings.
