Communication between different members of a design team is a notoriously difficult
problem, especially at the early stages of the design process. In the knitwear design
process, the communication between knitwear designers and technicians has been identified
in an empirical study as a major bottleneck. While knitwear is inherently difficult
to communicate, the design culture does little ease the problem. This paper argues
that an intelligent design support system allows the designers to turn their typically
incomplete, inconsistent and inaccurate specification of designs into a correct representation
of their ideas, thus reducing the interpretation by technicians as well as the design
time. This can be achieved by automatically creating design solution suggestions based
on the designers' customary specifications. This principle has been illustrated for
the construction of garment shapes, which were modeled mathematically |
