Design Science Research Methodology

This book addresses the science of artificial and design theory in the context of the scientific research development environment. The author discusses the concepts, activities and techniques associated with the emerging methodology Design Science Research (DSR). Further, he examines the main challenges for its implementation, based on an analysis of the DSR literature, variations of DSR (i.e. Action Design Research, and Grounded Design), and the applicability of DSR in various disciplines related to innovation, both within and outside of the professional school. As a result, this book goes beyond conceptual issues of DSR, presenting and discussing more pragmatic issues and challenges faced by researchers.

Design Science Research Methodology offers researchers in a variety of disciplines an examination of the various phases of scientific research development and communication.

This book is a translation of an original Portuguese edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
