Abstract
The technologies that support product design and manufacturing as explained in Chap. 5 are currently enjoying rapid and vigorous evolution and development but the implementation of certain supporting technologies and the establishment of ideal decision-making under the criteria described in Chap. 2 remain problematic. In future product manufacturing scenarios, rational and efficient decision-making will increasingly depend on the optimization technologies. Suitable optimization methodologies are essential to carry out the best possible decision-making when using a supporting system. This chapter explains the present state of optimization technologies for product designs, and presents fundamental methodologies and strategies that are applicable in simple as well as complex scenarios, including system design optimizations. In the explication of practical product design optimizations, special emphasis is placed upon the need to avoid automatic or formulaic application of optimization techniques, and methods for constructing and formulating successful optimization problems based on careful and thorough understanding of the subjects being regarded are provided.
