Towards a framework for developing product/service systems

Research paper published in Proceedings of the 3rd CIRP International Conference on Industrial Product Service Systems. Abstract Increasingly, manufacturers become service providers rather than product providers. In this work, a framework based on industrial studies is suggested for developing product service system. The framework is represented by five life cycle...

Towards sustainability-driven innovation through product-service systems

Research paper published in Proceedings of the 3rd CIRP International Conference on Industrial Product Service Systems. Abstract Many current sustainability considerations in industry constrain design space by emphasizing reduced material and energy flows across product life cycles. However, there are also opportunities for sustainability awareness to extend design space and...

Towards open innovation practices in aerospace industry : challenges and opportunities

Research paper published in Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Research into Design, ICoRD’11. Abstract Across industrial settings and environmental conditions, innovation is viewed as a source of advancing firms’ competitive position. Recently, a shift has been witnessed from the traditional innovation model, which mainly focused on internal research...

Knowledge Sharing Across Boundaries: Web 2.0 and Product-Service System Development

Research paper published in Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Research into Design, ICoRD’11. Abstract In recent years there has been a growing interest among product development organizations to capitalize on engineering knowledge as their core competitive advantage for innovation. Capturing, storing, retrieval, sharing and reusing of engineering knowledge...
