  • Abstract
    The paper presents a process-based design support system to aid the improvement of the mechanical engineering design process. The system requirements have been formulated from the characteristics of design derived from both prescriptive and descriptive design literature, and from an analysis of a design process in industry. The core of the system is a model of the design process, rather than of the product, in order to be able support the whole design activity
