In order to efficiently design complex microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) having large numbers of multi-domain components, a hierarchically structured design approach that is ...
To compare the outcomes of participatory and user-centered contextual design, case study methods and the Activity Checklist derived from Activity Theory are used to analyze two sy...
Context is a critical element in forming the performance of interactive systems. As the functional diversity and range of use context of the system increase, context sensitivity b...
: The transition from microelectronics to nanoelectronics reaches physical limits and results in a paradigm shift in the design and fabrication of electronic circuits. The conserva...
This paper presents Manas, a Semiotic Engineering epistemic tool for the design of collaborative systems (CoSys) whose aim is to expand the designers’ knowledge and awareness of ...
