Totalement design!

This research will assist in enabling a fundamental understanding and development of design principles and associated processes as well as guiding researchers and practitioners in advancements and use of such principles Ultimately the research provides foundations to design science

Alexander [12] design is ‘finding the right physical components of a physical structure’ In the context of architectural design Lawson [3] presents design problems as the assembling of constraints 1 2 7 Evolution and optimisation in a solution space of diversity As consequences of the complexity of design problems diversity presents in

whole design be more important than any subgroup or individual part Unity is therefore the goal of all design It is the most im­ portant aspect of design so important that its achievement ex­ cuses any design transgression Unity exists in elements that have a visual similarity -in for ex­ ample elements that are all vertical (left top)

element of design Each color has its own culturally associated meaning; different cultures create their own meanings and impressions on colors as there is no universal meaning associated to each color For example the color red is often linked to love or anger However the use of color in design can alter one’s impression of the design or

This book is able to connect the theoretical world of design automation to the practical world of the electronic-circuit layout generation The text focuses on the physical/layout design of integrated circuits (ICs) but also covers printed circuit boards (PCBs) where needed It takes the reader through a journey starting with
