Gaming techniques and the product development process: commonalities and cross-applications
by Andrew Wodehouse, David Bradley
J. of Design Research (JDR), Vol. 5, No. 2, 2006
Abstract: The use of computer-based tools is now firmly embedded within the product development process, providing a wide range of uses from visualisation to analysis.

This paper therefore considers how computer gaming techniques and strategies could be used to enhance communication and group design activities throughout the product design process.
