This paper describes a step-by-step method to minimize design iterations in a process of product design change. In the design process, two components are coupled if a change of a component can require the other components change, and design iterations are generated by the coupling. The design iteration is one of main factors that increase design effort. In this study, three matrices are used to solve the design iteration of automatic transmission lever, Requirement-Engineering matrix, Engineering-Components matrix, and DSM(Design Structure Matrix). Firstly, with the DSM, the product architecture and conceptual design process are proposed from product function analysis. Secondly, with the QFD, the Requirement-Engineering matrix and Engineering-Components matrix present the relationship among customer requirements, engineering issues, and product components. Lastly, the results of the QFD analysis are used in the DSM to solve the component interactions and to provide design

A new approach to process optimal design in non-isothermal, non-steady state metal forming is presented. In this approach, the optimal design problem is formulated on the basis of the integrated thermo-mechanical finite element process model so as to cover a wide range of the objective functions and design variables, and the derivative based approach is adopted for conducting optimization by design iteration. The process model, the formulation for process optimal design, and the procedures for the evaluation of the design sensitivity and for design iteration for optimization are described.

This paper describes an efficient design of an asynchronous 16-bit divider using the NST (new Svoboda-Tung) algorithm. The divider is designed to reduce power consumption by using the asynchronous design scheme in which the division operation is performed only when it is requested. The divider consists of three blocks, i.e. pre-scale block, iteration step block, and on-the-fly converter block using asynchronous pipeline structure. The pre-scale block is designed using a new subtracter to have small area and high performance. The iteration step block consists of an asynchronous ring structure with 4 division steps for area reduction. In other to reduce hardware overhead, the part related to critical path is designed by a dual-rail circuit, and the other part is done by a single-rail circuit in the ring structure. The on-the-fly converter block is designed for high performance using the on-the-fly algorithm that enables parallel operation with iteration step block. The design results with 0.6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS process show that the divider consists of 12,956 transistors with 1,480 $\times$1,200${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$$^2$area and average-case delay is 41.7㎱.

This paper will describe design process and its results that are minimized unaddressed feature of product development processes. This process provides integrated system design process by context analysis of EIA 632 standard process, interface definition from activity decomposition, integration of related activities, and definition of concurrency & sequential activities flow. This process and method application will contribute to minimize time loss that is emerged from activities iteration by not definitely definition of activities interface.

In this paper, we propose a new method to desing IIR Nyquist filters. By thismethod, we can design IIR nyquist filters which prossess linear phase characteristics andare lower in order than FIR Nyquist filters. WE derive expressions for zero-phased IIR Nyquist filters and propose new desing methods for them. An iteration process is used to design the proposed IIR Nyquist filter, and in each iteration step a modified version of the Remez exchange algorithm is used. Finally, the propose desing method is demonstrated through design examples.

In this paper, we propose a new design of turbo decoder. It contains the simple additional unit which automatically decides the number of the iteration by detecting of the reliability value as threshold value. We investigate the relationship between the reliability value and the number of the iteration. We find the optimal threshold value without noticeable loss in performance. As a results of the simulation, it reduces the average number of the iteration compared with the conventional turbo decoder.

Design is an act based on multidisciplinary information. The involvement of various stakeholders makes it difficult to process, plan, and integrate. Iteration is frequent in most of the engineering design and development projects including construction. Design iterations cause rework, and extra efforts are required to get the optimal sequence and to manage the projects. The simple project management techniques are insufficient to fulfill the requirements of integrated design. This paper entails two things: design structure matrix and design parameters' information based model. The emphasis has been given to optimal sequence and crucial iteration using design structure matrix analysis technique. The design projects have been studied using survey data from industry. The optimal sequence and crucial iterations results have been utilized for proposed model. Model integrates two things: information about produced- required key design parameters and information of design changes during the design process. It will help to get familiar with Design management in order to fulfill contemporary needs.

This paper proposes a novel controller design scheme for multimachine power systems based on the explorized policy iteration. Power systems have several uncertainties on system dynamics due to the various effects of interconnections between generators. To solve this problem, the proposed method solves the LQR (Linear Quadratic Regulation) problem of isolated subsystems without the knowledge of a system matrix and the interconnection parameters of multimachine power systems. By selecting the proper performance indices, it guarantees the stability and convergence of the LQ optimal control. To implement the proposed scheme, the least squares based online method is also investigated in terms of PE (Persistency of Excitation), interconnection parameters and exploration signals. Finally, the performance and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm are demonstrated by numerical simulations of three-machine power systems with governor controllers.

A new Pareto-optimal design algorithm, requiring least computational work, is proposed for a single phase AC solenoid actuator with multi-design-objectives: maximizing holding force and minimizing eddy current loss simultaneously. In the algorithm, the design space is successively reduced by a suitable factor, as iteration repeats, with the center of pseudo-optimal point. At each iteration, the objective functions are approximated to a simple second-order response surface with the CCD sampling points generated within the reduced design space, and Pareto-optimal solutions are obtained by applying($1+{\lambda}$) evolution strategy with the fitness values of Pareto strength.
