Change Propagation Modelling to Support the Selection of Solutions in Incremental Change
Koh,C. Y.Edwin; Keller, Rene; Eckert,M.Claudia; Clarkson P. John // 2009
It is common for companies to generate new products through modi cation of existing ones. This is known as incremental change. During this process, designers are usually faced with more than one ...
Checklists as Tools for Reflective Practice for Designers
Geis, Christian; Birkhofer, Herbert // 2009
Methodical designing nowadays is an important topic when developing competitive and successful products. But to work methodically means to overcome many obstacles and problems. With reflective ...
Classification of knowledge and contents for a user specific transfer of product development knowledge
Weber, Harald; Birkhofer, Herbert // 2009
The optimal transfer of product development knowledge varies with the user's expertise and his or her situation. This is why advanced navigation, searching and filtering possibilities are ...
Co-Evolution of Products & Communities in Mass Collaborative Product Development: a Computational Exploration
Panchal, Jitesh // 2009
Mass collaborative product development (MCPD) refers to a paradigm where large numbers of people collaborate in the form of communities to develop products and services. The evolution of products ...

Boolean Searches
The following examples demonstrate some search strings that use boolean operators:
- design community
Find rows that contain at least one of the two words. - +design +community
Find rows that contain both words. - +design community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but rank rows higher if they also contain “community”. - +design -community
Find rows that contain the word “design” but not “community”. - +design ~community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but if the row also contains the word “community”, rate it lower than if row does not. - +design +(>community <decisions)
Find rows that contain the words “design” and “community”, or “design” and “decisions” (in any order), but rank “design community” higher than “design decisions” - design*
Find rows that contain words such as “design”, “designs”, “designing”, or “designer”. - "some words"
Find rows that contain the exact phrase “some words” (for example, rows that contain “some words of wisdom” but not “some noise words”). Note that the " characters that enclose the phrase are operator characters that delimit the phrase. They are not the quotation marks that enclose the search string itself.
