Effective.Design Design.Patterns Fred.*s New essays by Fred *s, "a worthy successor to the classic Mythical Man-Month." http://www.amazon.com/Design-Essays-Computer-Scientist/dp/0201362988 Paperback: 448 pages Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional; 1 edition (April 1, 2010) Language: English ISBN-10: 0201362988 ISBN-13: 978-0201362985 Product Description: Making Sense of Design Effective design is at the heart of everything from software development to engineering to architecture. But what do we really know about the design process? What leads to effective, elegant designs? The Design of Design addresses these questions. These new essays by Fred *s contain extraordinary insights for designers in every discipline. *s pinpoints constants inherent in all design projects and uncovers processes and patterns likely to lead to excellence. Drawing on conversations with dozens of exceptional designers, as well as his own experiences in several design domains, *s observes that bold design decisions lead to better outcomes. The author tracks the evolution of the design process, treats collaborative and distributed design, and illuminates what makes a truly great designer. He examines the nuts and bolts of design processes, including budget constraints of many kinds, aesthetics, design empiricism, and tools, and grounds this discussion in his own real-world examples–case studies ranging from home costruction to IBM’s Operating System/360. Throughout, *s reveals keys to success that every designer, design project manager, and design researcher should know.
