Abstract :
In this paper, we will define some of the terminology, provide a model for the diagnostic process, and highlight areas of diagnostic complications. We will apply the diagnostic complications in a Venn diagram to get a better illustration and possibly create a basis for diagnosability metrics in future work. With the tools at hand, we will finally tackle the design issues by hypothesizing on various causes of each diagnostic complication and providing some (though not exhaustive) DFD guidelines.
