Lo, Chi-Hung – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2016
Based on the characteristic feature parameterization and the superiority evaluation method (SEM) in extension engineering, a product-shape design method was proposed in this study. The first step of this method is to decompose the basic feature components of a product. After that, the morphological chart method is used to segregate the ideas so as…

Harteveld, Casper; Guimaraes, Rui; Mayer, Igor S.; Bidarra, Rafael – Simulation & Gaming, 2010
Most serious games have been developed without a proper and comprehensive design theory. To contribute to the development of such a theory, this article presents the underlying design philosophy of LEVEE PATROLLER, a game to train levee patrollers in the Netherlands. This philosophy stipulates that the design of a digital serious game is a…
