Cheap does not imply cost-effective -- this is rule number one of zeitgeisty system design. The initial investment accounts only for a small portion of the lifecycle costs of a technical system. In fluid systems, about ninety percent of the total costs are caused by other factors like power consumption and maintenance. With modern optimization methods, it is already possible to plan an optimal technical system considering multiple objectives. In this paper, we focus on an often neglected contribution to the lifecycle costs: downtime costs due to spontaneous failures. Consequently, availability becomes an issue.

Bringing the designer’s concept to the non-design expert’s communicative level requires a significant understanding of the communication media. Primarily the design communication depends on the type of the tools used. Virtual tools with their pre-set operability limit the designer’s ways of interaction with the artefacts. This article proposes a framework for designers to interact with non-design experts through an enhanced communicative media. The design framework indicates steps of design thinking to develop the interface by understanding both the virtual artefacts’ perceptual affordance to the users and the design task. The paper discusses about projects tested in three different scenarios, urban design, architecture, and product design. It concludes with the arguments on designers’ role as authors of the system design.

The products of cognitive analysis are rarely used effectively in the design of complex, first-of-a-kind systems. This project is motivated by the assumption that those products do not explicitly reveal their design the implications. On the other hand, the analyses undertaken by Systems Engineers do not capture the essential properties of cognitive requirements. The work described here is aimed at developing a computer-supported system that can support dialog between Cognitive Engineers and Systems Engineers as they seek to resolve design issues surrounding cognitive requirements. This project is in its first phase. The preliminary work has demonstrated how a Brahms model might be used to develop a prototype of a socio-technical system based on cognitive specifications developed from a Work Domain Analysis.
