WP Objectives

Bring together various communities involved in thedesign of Internet solutionsIncrease the understanding of how various designmethodologies relate to each other Distill a set of rigorous design methods that aredirectly anchored into a deep scientificunderstandingGather a set of tools (from existing efforts in thisspace)Inform the various stakeholders

R2.1 Distilling Design methodologies

Engage with individual design communities

Develop growing repository of methodologieso used in communities such as user experience, sociology, economics,

governance, networks, physics, and many othersClarify their standing in the overall problem space of system designas well as the specific needs they addressPartners: UCAM, UPMC, ALB, UoS, NKUA, UNI PASSAU, ULANC,SOTON

R2.2 Developing a Set of Design Tools

Development of design toolso help the wider multi-disciplinary community to go about its holistic challenge of (scientifically) designing solutions and arguing about their viability on the basis

of a set of rigorous methodologiesPush the boundaries of design beyond the often stove-pipedsolutions that are aboundStudy methodologies and general frameworks

o model the interplay between social and technical aspects in the design of thefuture Internet

Partners: UCAM, CNR, IBBT, UoS, NKUA, TCLR, UNI PASSAU,ULANC

R2.2 Developing a Set of Design Tools

Exampleso Model the social impact of the adoption of a technical solutionExpected input: game theoryo Perform quantitative evaluation for a certain business model

Expected input: investment analysis studyo Capture the various conflicts (tussles) that impact the viability of a given

design or a set of design choices under a varying set of possible evolutionscenarios

Expected input: system dynamicsSuch development is an ambitious goal

o Requires tight interaction between researchers in the areas of human socialsciences and ICT

o Will take stock from existing activities in this area, identify areas for further research between the different disciplines, and pursue innovative researchin order to become a point of reference

R2.3 Exemplifying Use of Design Tools

Illustrate and exemplify the ability to understand and reason over

design (decisions) through a set of use caseso A set of interesting design questions will be identifiedo Provide meaningful answers based on the developing design methodologiesPossible use cases

o FTTH, community networks, pervasive sensing, mobile network deployments,eHealth, retail, transportation, and many others.

o Another set of use cases can be drawn from the various efforts in FIarchitectures such as pursued in CCN/NDN, FP7 PURSUIT, FP7 SAIL or others

Partners: UCAM, UPMC, UoS, IBBT, CERTH

WP Impact

Develop a holistic notion of a Design Scienceo Scientific reasoning over design choiceso Qualitative as well as quantitative!Outreach to wider design communityo Move FAR beyond computer science

Cross-inform communities about growing set of methodologies

Issues to be discussed and decided

Workshop on Thinking Architecturallyo Aims at bringing together various design communities

in an attempt to cross-fertilize the requiredunderstanding when "thinking architecturally" in thecontext of large-scale multi-stakeholder systems

o

The expected outcome will feed into a growingtaxonomy of design methodologies and it will seed therepository of design methodologies

o Originally proposed in relation to SEA3o Target timeframe: Q2/2012
