Strategies in Design

Strategies in object-oriented design

This paper presents a study aiming to analyse the design strategies of experts in object-oriented programming. We report an experiment conducted with four experts. Each subject solved three problems. Our results show that three strategies may be used in program design according to the solution structure. An object-centred strategy and a function-centred strategy are used when the solution has a...

Database Design Strategies in CANDAs

Developing a productive CANDA system starts with an optimal database design. Traditional objectives and standards of normalization are not appropriate. A focus on function, ease of operation and performance drive the data file structure design to become more integrated. The regulatory approval process defines the system functions and features of the CANDA. This paper will outline the strategies...

Providing Design Strategies for Ventilation System in Treatment Environments (Proposed Sample: Hybrid Ventilation System in Hospitals)

One of basic principles in designing treatment environments is to design air conditioning/ventilation system proportionate to environment. Essentially, appropriate air conditioner in treatment spaces must bear the following capabilities: providing healthy and clean air, reducing the concentration of pollutants produced in the atmosphere, emission of pollutants and impeding their spread in exter...

Empathic design: Research strategies.

This paper explores the role of empathy within new product development from the perspective of human-centred design. The authors have developed a range of empathic design tools and strategies that help to identify authentic human needs.For products and services to be effective, they need to satisfy both functional and emotional needs of individuals. In addition, the individual user needs to fee...
