  Abstract/
Summary
A wide variety of design methods (brain storming, morphological matrix, heuristic methods, TRIZ …) are available to the engineer, who wants to develop innovative industrial products. The aim of the proposed paper is an attempt to make a step toward the integration of all these methods. In order to include also the modern appreciable tendency to accomplish a more and more strict integration and interaction between product and communication in all phases of the life cycle, it is possible to consider the corresponding communication too, introducing, in analogy to the Design for X (DfX) concept, the Communication for X (CfX) ) concept. In this paper, a general schema of the above summarized integrated design process will be proposed and deeply analyzed. Starting from this schema, some considerations will be drawn and a practical sample application will be illustrated.
