Systems Engineering Design
We study the product development process and its participants in order to understand their problems and needs — and turn that knowledge into better work procedures, development methods and computer-based tools.
Explore our publicationsWhat we research
Platform-based development
A widely adopted strategy for balancing the conflict between reuse and demands on customisation. We work towards a system-family-based platform description approach grounded in PLM environments.
Methods and work procedures
Understanding how engineers actually develop products — and transforming that knowledge into better work procedures and development methods for industry.
Computer-based engineering tools
Design automation, knowledge reuse and decision support: tools that carry knowledge from early requirement and concept phases through detail design and into production.
