Abstract
In spite of the process of conception generation being essential to promote product innovation, it has not been effectively carried out by designers, due to the abstract nature of this activity. In order facilitate this process, Reverse Engineering (RE) has been suggested as a way to formalize the processes of identifying, purchasing and modeling design information in terms of functions and solution principles, in a continuous and systematic way. This paper presents a literature review of technical systems conception processes and of RE. The results of a technical visit to a leading RE company, and a preliminary methodological proposal for RE process modeling for technical systems, are also reported. This proposal is intended to support the concept generation process of technical systems. Finally, guidelines are proposed for the final version of the methodology.
