The Model-Driven Decision Arena: Augmented Decision-Making for Product-Service Systems Design

Abstract The shift towards Product-Service Systems (PSS) stresses the need to embed new and unique capabilities in Decision Support Systems, with the aim of helping the engineering team in handling the pool of information and knowledge available during decision events. Emerging from a multiple case study in the Swedish manufacturing industry, this paper describes the development of the Model-Driven Decision...

Digital produktutveckling för en hållbar framtid!

Det enda vi har runt oss som inte är medvetet utvecklat är naturen – allt annat är utvecklat av människans hand. Produktutveckling är den medvetna processen att skapa de ting vi använder oss av i vår vardag. Bilar, flygplan, mjölkkartonger, allt är produktutvecklat. Professor Tobias Larsson forskar inom produktutveckling och leder profilen kring modelldriven produkt-tjänsteutveckling vid BTH.
