Abstract
Our society is changing rapidly from a closed world with clearly defined boundaries, to an open world with no boundaries and with frequent and extensive changes. At the same time, design is changing from designer-centric to user-centric, and humans and machines must work together as a team. Therefore, satisfying individual human needs rather than mass needs is becoming increasingly important. Such changes call for cyclic and reflective engineering. Emotion will play an important role in providing us with motives for interaction and with guidelines for rationalizing our actions. In the future, wisdom will be crucial in engineering, and emotion will play a very important role in realizing this wisdom-based engineering.
