This program of research is aimed at gaining a general                     understanding of the design process, developing new forms of                    computer tools and methods for designers, and implementing and                  evaluating these tools in a realistic design environment.  The                  research will be carried out by an interdisciplinary design                     team of faculty associated with the Exploratory Design                          Laboratory (EDL).  The research will focus on three areas: 1)                   computer tools for aiding design problem formulation, 2)                        adaptation of analysis tools to design tools, and 3) methods                    and computer tools for rapid prototyping.  The result of this                   research will be computer-based aids to designers in each of                    these three areas as well as a continuing improvement in                        understanding and implementation of modern design methods.                      These aids and methods will be tested in a structured graduate                  educational program.  In the EDL, students have proven to be an                 excellent resource for trying out new ideas, for getting useful                 feedback, and for propagating successful ideas.  Through the                    use of guides, software, and remote access to implementation                    servers, the research results will be rapidly disseminated into                 research and educational communities.
