Design  projects often involve many people belonging to different functional  areas and in many organizations several design projects may be under  way at the same time. Due to this complexity, management of design has  given rise to a rich set of research problems in management and  engineering. \u003cbr\u003e  In this volume, design is considered as the planning and specification  activity prior to fabrication. Design determines what products will be  produced, how they will be produced, and when they will be introduced  into the market. The quality of the products and the speed with which  they are developed are significantly affected by the design process.  The design process by which a product is developed is determined by  the managerial and engineering practices, tools and techniques. \u003cbr\u003e  This book presents engineering and management perspectives on design.
