Framework for Creative/Innovative Systems

Abstract

A framework is proposed in this paper which considers the creative design process as a regulatory process that controls many design activities. The advantage of the proposed framework is that it leads to an adaptive design process that can be tailored to a particular design and designers working habits. The main result of this paper is that it shows that the design process is by no means linear where it follows a set of predetermined design stage. This linear model assumption is implicit in all existing creative design methodologies.
