This paper presents a new crowdsourcing approach to the construction of patent clusters, and systematically benchmarks it against previous expert and algorithmic approaches. Patent databases should be rich sources of inspiration which could lead engi...

Interactions (i.e. modes of operations through which product development knowledge is generated and externalized in the design process) play a vital role in knowledge processes of product development. Intentional or unintentional changes in interacti... Read More about Interactional Differences and Effects Between Collocated and Distributed Design.

The analysis and presentation of patents to support engineering design (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper explores the role of patents in engineering design, and how the extraction and presentation of patent data could be improved for designers. We propose the use of crowdsourcing as a means to post tasks online for a crowd of people to partic... Read More about The analysis and presentation of patents to support engineering design.
