The Distinct and Interrelated Roles of Value-Driven Design, Multidisciplinary Design Optimization, and Decision Analysis

The different intents and capabilities of Value-Dri ven Design and Multidisciplinary Design Optimization are explored, compared, and contrasted. A distinct and necessary role is found for each technique. The foundation of both research areas in Decision Analysis is explored, particularly in the context of Multidisci plinary Design Optimization and ValueDriven Design for Large-Scale Complex Engineered Systems.
