Abstract

A decision-based approach is presented for the design of top-level specifications for engineering systems in general and aircrafts in particular. An approximation of the design space is made using XPLORE to direct the Decision Support Problem (DSP). XPLORE, depending on a designer's needs, systematically samples the complete design space to generate information about the feasible and satisficing regions of the design space. This information is then used to identify families of potentially feasible and good designs which are further developed using more accurate analysis and synthesis tools to effectively design top-level specifications.
