Design creativity describes the process by which needs are explored and translated into requirements for change. This Element examines the role of design creativity within the context of healthcare improvement. It begins by outlining the characteristics of design thinking, and the key status of the Double Diamond Model. It provides practical tools to support design creativity, including ethnographic/observational studies, personas and scenarios, and needs identification and requirements analysis. It also covers brainstorming, Disney, and six thinking hats techniques, the nine windows technique, morphological charts and product architecting, and concept evaluation. The tools, covering all stages of the Double Diamond model, are supported by examples of their use in healthcare improvement. The Element concludes with a critique of design creativity and the evidence for its application in healthcare improvement. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

The first Cambridge Workshop on Universal Access and Assistive Technology (CWUAAT) was held at Trinity Hall, Cambridge, in March 2002. It was inspired by the earlier, highly successful Cambridge Workshops on Rehabilitation Robotics organised by the late Robin Jackson. Robin was the founder of Rehabilitation Research at Cambridge which now continues in the Engineering Design Centre within the Department of Engineering, led by John Clarkson and Simeon Keates, and in the Rainbow Group within the Computer Laboratory led by Peter Robinson. CWUAAT represents the first in a new series of workshops that we are aiming to hold every two years which, reflecting the spirit of recent moves to extend the rights for universal accessibility, will encourage discussion of a broad range of interests. There will be a general focus on product/solution development. Hence it is intended that the principal requirements for the successful design of assistive technology shall be addressed, where these range from the identification and capture of the needs of the users, through to the development and evaluation of truly usable and accessible systems for users with special needs. The best submissions received for the first CWUAAT are contained in this book, where the contributors are all leading researchers in the fields of Universal Access and Assistive Technology and represent a large part of the international research community. They include, though not exclusively, computer scientists, designers, engineers, industrial representatives, ergonomists and sociologists.

Modelling for Business Improvement contains the proceedings of the First International Conference on Process Modelling and Process Management (MMEP 2010) held in Cambridge, England, in March 2010. It contains contributions from an international group of leading researchers in the fields of process modelling and process management.This conference will showcase recent trends in the modelling and management of engineering processes, explore potential synergies between different modelling approaches, gather and discuss future challenges for the management of engineering processes and discuss future research areas and topics.Modelling for Business Improvement is divided into three main parts:1. Theoretical foundation of modelling and management of engineering processes, and achievements in theory.2. Experiences from management practice using various modelling methods and tools, and their future challenges.3. New perspectives on modelling methods, techniques and tools.

Rapid and unprecedented population ageing poses a serious social and economic challenge across the developed world. Shifts in dependency ratios point to escalating welfare and pensions costs which require radical and imaginative responses from Government and industry. Key to this is a healthy population able and willing to work longer before retirement and who can be independent for as long as possible afterwards as well as bringing disabled people into mainstream life and employment.This book was stimulated by the 3rd CWUAAT workshop (the CWUAAT workshops have a general focus on product and solution development). It was held in Cambridge, UK in April 2006. Contributions from leading researchers focused on:- design issues for a more inclusive world;- enabling computer access and the development of new technologies;- assistive technology and rehabilitation robotics; and,- understanding users and involving them in design.

“Designing Inclusive Futures” reflects the need to explore, in a coherent way, the issues and practicalities that lie behind design that is intended to extend our active future lives. This encompasses design for inclusion in daily life at home but also extends to the workplace and for products within these contexts. For example, given trends in employment sector growth, skills requirements, labour supply and demographic change, there is a need to predict the critical areas where individual capabilities are mismatched with the physical, social and organisational demands of work. This mismatch, which can be addressed within the domain of inclusive design, is pervasively linked to real artefacts in workspaces and their intersection with the health factors that relate to ageing. This book is the result of the fourth CWUAAT workshop held in Cambridge, England in April 2008.

Inclusive design, universal design and universal access are long standing, familiar terms with clear and laudable goals. However, their teaching and industrial uptake has been very limited. Many products still exclude users unnecessarily for reasons ranging from corporate insensitivity and the size of the market for inclusive products to the individual designer's inability to design them. This pragmatic approach to making inclusive design desirable to industry addresses these issues and discusses why existing methods have failed to be assimilated into industry. Through the use of case studies and examples, Countering Design Exclusion introduces the mind-set necessary to think through the challenges raised by inclusive design and to adapt their solutions to the needs of particular companies. The practical outlook will appeal to anyone who wishes to take account of the largest possible part of the population in their designs.

Dieses Buch untersucht eine prozessuale Perspektive auf Design und Entwicklung, die auf Forschungen in den Bereichen Designstudien, Ingenieurdesign und Systemdesign basiert.Der Design- und Entwicklungsprozess ist von großer Bedeutung – er erschafft alle künstlichen Produkte und Systeme und bestimmt, wie gut sie die Bedürfnisse der Menschen erfüllen. Die in diesem Buch dargestellte prozessuale Perspektive hat einen Wert für die Design- und Entwicklungspraxis sowie die Ausbildung und ist an sich ein faszinierendes Thema der Untersuchung.Das Buch baut auf den Grundlagen einer prozessualen Perspektive auf und diskutiert deren Umsetzung in vielen Prozessmodellen, Theorien und Ansätzen, die im Laufe der Jahre entwickelt wurden. Die Kapitel bieten zusammenhängende Übersichten der wichtigsten Konzepte und stellen neue konzeptionelle Rahmenwerke vor, um die Beziehungen zwischen den besprochenen Beiträgen zu klären. Praktische Überlegungen und die erforderlichen Kompetenzen, um die greifbaren Vorteile einer prozessualen Perspektive zu realisieren, werden ebenfalls behandelt.Ein einzigartiger Aspekt dieses Buches ist, dass es viele Perspektiven auf den Design- und Entwicklungsprozess zusammenbringt: solche, die sich auf einzelne Designaktivitäten konzentrieren, bis hin zu denen, die sich auf groß angelegte Entwicklungsprojekte fokussieren; solche von Forschungsinteresse und solche von praktischer Relevanz; sowie solche, die für Designkontexte von Bedeutung sind, die von menschenzentriertem Design bis hin zu Ingenieurdesign und Systemdesign reichen. Die Kapitelbibliographien sammeln sorgfältig ausgewählte Empfehlungen für weiterführende Literatur zu jedem besprochenen Thema. Das Buch enthält außerdem viele farbige Abbildungen, die visuell die Beziehung jedes Themas zu den neuen organisatorischen Rahmenwerken widerspiegeln, die eingeführt werden.
