  1. An Open Workshop on Decision-Based Design Kemper Lewis Assistant Professor University at Buffalo Buffalo, NY 14260 Wei Chen Assistant Professor University of Illinois at Chicago Chicago, IL 60607 Linda Schmidt Assistant Professor University of Maryland College Park, MD 20742-3035 10th Meeting Open Workshop, 9/10/2000. ASME DETC/CIE Conferences

  2. Open Workshop Participation Website http://dbd.eng.buffalo.edu/ • Progress of workshop • Updates from face-to-face meetings • Registration for listserve and mailing list • Interactive submission boards • Deliverables, DBD Links • Newsletter Listserve dbd-list@listserv.acsu.buffalo.edu Register via web site 10th Meeting Open Workshop, 9/10/2000. ASME DETC/CIE Conferences

  3. Open Workshop Format • An Open Workshop is always in session, always accessible! • convened November, 1996 • ends November, 2001 • Workshop dialogue via website, e-mail, and list service • Quarterly newsletter to registrants • 2-3 Supporting meetings annually 10th Meeting Open Workshop, 9/10/2000. ASME DETC/CIE Conferences

  4. Open Workshop Goals • Synthesize a sound theory of Decision-Based Design. • Determine the proper role of decision-making in design. • Develop consensus on defining the DBD perspective. • Establish the role of DBDwithin design theory and methodology research. • Build a repository of foundational materials (e.g., a lexicon, case studies, references) that illustrate design as decision-making. • Establish a useful relationship between DBD and other theories(e.g., physics, mathematics, information and management science) • Transfer DBDdecision support methods and tools into industry. 10th Meeting Open Workshop, 9/10/2000. ASME DETC/CIE Conferences

  5. What is the DBD Perspective? • Decision-making is a vital part of design. • DBD practitioners view design as a decision-makingprocessmaximizes the value of a designed artifact to both the producer and the end-user. • Design occurs in anenvironment characterized by ambiguity, uncertainty and risk, complicating the decision-making process. • DBD processes emphasize establishing value systems to rank expected outcomes of design decisions and incorporating uncertainty and risk handling in predicting the expected outcomes. 10th Meeting Open Workshop, 9/10/2000.

  20. 10th Open Workshop on Decision-Based Design Panel Session on The Role of Decision Analysis in Engineering Design September 10, 2000 Baltimore, MD 10th Meeting Open Workshop, 9/10/2000. ASME DETC/CIE Conferences

  21. Panelists • Yan Jin • University of Southern Carifornia • Sundar Krishnamurty • University of Massachusetts, Amherst • David Kazmar • University of Massachusetts, Amherst • John Renaud • University of Notre Dame 10th Meeting Open Workshop, 9/10/2000. ASME DETC/CIE Conferences

  22. Decision Analysis Decision analysis is a structured way of thinking about how the action taken in the current decision would lead to a result. Decision analysis constructs models, logical and perhaps even mathematical representations that allow the decision maker to estimate the possible implications of each course of action and better understand the relationship between the actions and the objectives. 10th Meeting Open Workshop, 9/10/2000. ASME DETC/CIE Conferences

  23. Questions to be Addressed • Should all design activities, including those that might be intuitive (nonjudgemental), e.g., brainstorming for the generation of design alternatives, be constructed under a decision theory framework? • Is Multiattribute Utility Analysis a useful method in Engineering Design? What is your approach to engineering decision making that involves multiple attributes and multiple decision makers? • What are the top research issues for developing DBD approaches to design? Intuitive - knowing or perceiving without an evident and rational process. 10th Meeting Open Workshop, 9/10/2000. ASME DETC/CIE Conferences
