Decisionmaking in Conceptual Phase of Product Development

Product Development studies the activities underlying a product life cycle in a concurrent manner. In the conceptual phase of product development, a set of key solutions are determined by using an appropriate decisionmaking approach. However, decisionmaking in this phase is a difficult task to perform due to incomplete information, lack of knowledge, and abundance of choice. This book describes logical approaches for making decisions in conceptual phase of product development. In particular, the emphasis is given on such issues as customer needs, sustainability, and creativity. Multi-valued logic and information content from the context of epistemic uncertainty have been used for the sake of computation.
