We discuss the evolution of Praxis, a model-driven process framework, building on feedback from educational and professional applications, along the past fifteen years. We follow the evolution from Praxis first version to the current one, discussing what was introduced in each. For past and current versions, we classify model improvements, discussing their nature and rationale, derived from rec...

The paper is an investigation into the relation between use-oriented design and object-oriented methods. Based on the notions of historical crystallisation of praxis into artefacts, the concept of secondary artefacts, and the notion of boundary objects, it is argued that object-oriented descriptions should be understood as transformations of artefacts from the considered praxis rather than mode...

PRAXIS embodies a computer language for reproducing design calculations in a paginated and tidy layout suitable for submission to a checking authority. Some calculations reproduced by PRAXIS are illustrated in Fig. 1. From the calculations alone it would be impossible to tell whether the page came from a typewriter (being copied from a designer's hand-written calculations) or from a computer, b...

With students, we explore the construction of praxis, which includes being/becomin...

Practice-based research networks (PBRNs) have developed a grounded approach to conducting practice-relevant and translational research in community practice settings. Seismic shifts in the health care landscape are shaping PBRNs that work across organizational and institutional margins to address complex problems. Praxis-based research networks combine PBRN knowledge generation with multistakeh...
