Abstract: Product life cycle management promises management of all intellectual assets generated for all life cycle stages of a product. In engineering, over 75% of design activity comprises case-based design – reuse of previous design knowledge to address a new design problem. This means that rationale capture and reuse are critical in design and redesign projects. The goal of this paper is to report empirical study of designing carried out to understand the needs and constraints for design rationale capture, and to detail the concept, implementation and preliminary evaluation of an unobtrusive, real-time design rationale capture framework.
