Abstract
Product-Service Systems (PSS) have been regarded as a new business concept for manufacturing companies to enhance the value of their products. Since both products and services are included in the design objects, PSS design requires a broader range of knowledge to generate ideas for its design solutions. In this paper, for the purpose of supporting idea generation in PSS design, a knowledge-based design support method is proposed. The basic feature of the proposed method is providing knowledge collected from PSS cases. The effectiveness of the proposed method is presented on the basis of its application to an example.
