本书对设计过程进行深入分析,揭示进行有效和优雅设计的方法。作者追踪了设计过程的演进,探讨了协作和分布式设计,阐明了哪些条件造就了真正卓越的设计者。他探讨了设计过程的具体细节,包括多种预算约束条件、美学考虑、设计经验主义及工具。同时,他将这些讨论与现实中的案例结合起来。
无论是软件开发、工程还是建筑,有效的设计都是工作的核心。本书将对设计过程进行深入分析,揭示进行有效和优雅设计的方法。
本书包含了多个行业设计者的特别领悟。作者精确发现了所有设计项目中内在的不变因素,揭示了进行优秀设计的过程和模式。通过与几十位优秀设计者的对话,以及他自己在几个设计领域的经验,作者指出,大胆的设计决定会产生更好的结果。
作者追踪了设计过程的演进,探讨了协作和分布式设计,阐明了哪些条件造就了真正卓越的设计者。他探讨了设计过程的具体细节,包括多种预算约束条件、美学考虑、设计经验主义及工具。同时,他将这些讨论与现实中的案例结合起来,这些案例从房屋建造到ibm的operating system/360。成功的关键因素贯穿全书,每个设计者、设计项目经理和设计研究者都应该知道。
