Excerpt

This Special Issue collects some state-of-the-art research into the design and development process. We believe that this is an important topic for investigation and that there are compelling pragmatic reasons to research the design and development process. After all, this is the process by which organisations create designs and bring them to market or deploy them! Better processes could potentially be a pathway to better products, services and systems, and ultimately higher profits. …
