Abstract :
The paper discusses the importance of structuring engineering tasks so that they can be effectively processed by the available resources and, in particular, of defining design tasks in terms of concepts that are matched to the capabilities of the mind. The increasing complexity of design tasks leads to an emphasis on design in the domain of functional, rather than physical, requirements
