The initial motivator for the development of DRM, a Design Research
Methodology, and the subsequent writing of this book was our
frustration about the lack of a common terminology, benchmarked
research methods, and above all, a common research methodology in
design. A shared view of the goals and framework for doing design
research was missing. Design is a multidisciplinary activity
occurring in multiple application areas and involving multiple
stakeholders. As a consequence, design research emerges in a
variety of disciplines for a variety of applications with a variety
of subjects. This makes it particularly difficult to review its
literature, relate various pieces of work, find common ground, and
validate and share results that are so essential for sustained
progress in a research community. Above all, design research needs
to be successful not only in an academic sense, but also in a
practical sense. How could we help the community develop knowledge
that is both academically and practically worthwhile? Each of us
had our individual ideas of how this situation could be improved.
Lucienne Blessing, while finishing her thesis that involved
studying and improving the design process, developed valuable
insights about the importance and relationship of empirical studies
in developing and evaluating these improvements. Amaresh
Chakrabarti, while finishing his thesis on developing and
evaluating computational tools for improving products, had
developed valuable insights about integrating and improving the
processes of building and evaluating tools.
