The document discusses best practices for product design and development. It outlines key aspects of the process including identifying customer needs, establishing target specifications, concept generation, concept selection, concept testing, and setting final specifications. It also describes an evaluation framework that allows companies to compare their performance to industry benchmarks and best practices. The framework is used to develop an improvement plan by assessing a company's current situation, identifying gaps compared to best practices, and determining priorities based on business strategy and best practices.
Describe how a product is developed and what are the stages of development and morphology of Design.
It discusses the various challenges faced while developing and also the evolution of different products which have become the daily need of our life.

Introduction to Product design and Development by Karl T. Ulrich. Here is the presentation file of chapter 1 by the students of SUST IPE 2010-11 batch.
Product design in its broadest sense includes the whole development of the product through all the preliminary stages until actual manufacturing begins.The process focuses on figuring out what is required, brainstorming possible ideas, creating mock prototypes, and then generating the product. however, that is not the end of the process.
The process of devising a System, Component or Process to meet desired needs.
It is a decision – making process (Often iterative), in which the basic sciences, mathematics and engineering sciences are applied to optimally convert resources to meet a stated objective.
Among the fundamental elements of the design process is the establishment of objectives and criteria, synthesis, analysis, construction, testing and evaluation.
Curriculum must include :
Development of student creativity
Use of open-ended problems
Development and use of modern design theory and methodology
Formulation of design problem statement and specification
Production process
Concurrent engineering design and
Detailed system description.
Essential to include :
Realistic constraints such as
Economic factors
Safety
Reliability
Ethics and
Social impact
Product design involves many steps in order to reach the finalised, working product. Here is a basic guide from http://www.rf3design.co.uk with 7 steps to effective product design.
In this presentation, we will discuss the concept and interrelation between product and process design and product life cycle. We will also talk about key decisions required in process design and evaluation of process design.

An Introduction to Software Performance EngineeringCorrelsense
Software performance engineering is becoming increasingly important to businesses as they look to improve the non-functional performance of applications and get more out of IT investments. By leveraging performance engineering techniques, IT professionals can be indispensable in building and optimizing scalable systems. This
introductory course will teach you the essentials of software
performance engineering including :
• The performance challenges faced by Enterprise IT today
• What is software performance engineering (SPE)?
• Best practices for building scalable software systems
• The approaches to integrating SPE into IT project lifecycles
• Common frameworks for measuring application performance and service levels
• The impact of SPE on software developers, testers, capacity planes,
and other IT professionals
• Case studies from the finance, retail, and insurance industries

Our mission is: transforming data to reveal business and clinical insights. We accomplish this through our data management, business intelligence and analytics consulting services. We ensure that organizations have the proper tools, technology and processes to improve performance – relative to predefined critical success factors and key performance indicators – based on greater insight and analysis through analytics. We offer a framework for establishing an Analytics Center of Excellence within organizations to define roles and responsibilities and coordinate activities and tasks among key stakeholders. With emphasis on statistical analysis, forecasting, optimization, and simulation, analytics provides results that are predictive and prescriptive, injecting clarity and confidence in decision making and improving performance through situational awareness at all levels of the organization.
Through our past consulting engagements, we observed significant challenges and short-comings in how these organizations navigate such a data-rich environment in the pursuit of analytical excellence. Based on our assessment and evaluation, we develop a roadmap for establishing an information environment that enables stakeholders to improve clinical decision-making and performance (as related to quality, outcomes, cost and utilization) through data visualizations and advanced analytics. This roadmap accounts for both structured and unstructured data, and it includes provisions for controlled data access based on security and privacy policies. We manage the transition from on-premise to cloud-based data sources and leverage the cloud as an aggregation point for creating a Big Data analytics platform. We then perform an alternatives analysis of feasible solutions based on several factors, including: delivered capabilities, ease of implementation, performance, scalability, interoperability and integration with legacy systems, and functionality -- at a cost that maximizes ROI.

5. IDENTIFYING CUSTOMER NEEDS
Important to know their needs and effectively
communicate them to the development team.
Output results in:
Customer needs statements
Organized in a hierarchical order
Each need is assigned a rating of importance
6. ESTABLISHING TARGET SPECIFICATIONS
Specifications define what the product is
supposed to do.
Serves as a translation of customer needs
into technical terms.
Target specs are set early and refined as the
team zeros in on a choice of product
concept.
7. CONCEPT GENERATION
The goal is to thoroughly explore the space of
product concepts that may address the customer
needs.
Consists of:
External searches
Creative problem solving within the team
Results in maybe 10 to 20 concepts, each with a sketch
and brief description
8. CONCEPT SELECTION
A process where each concept is evaluated
to identify the most promising concepts.
Requires several iterations and may cause
additional concept generation and
refinement.
9. CONCEPT TESTING
One or more concepts are tested to verify the
customer needs have been met.
To also assess the market potential of the product.
I.D. any shortcomings before any further
development.
Poor customer feedback could result in terminating
a project.
10. SETTING FINAL SPECIFICATIONS
Previous target specifications are revisited
AFTER a concept has been selected and
tested.
The project team needs to commit to specific
values of metrics for the final specifications.
Technical modeling done and they look at
trade-offs between cost and performance.
