本文的目的是首次尝试从经济、社会学和管理学等多种学科的角度来分析设计功能。它探讨了设计是什么，并将其与研发和技术创新进行了比较。它调查了有关技术创新的文献，并考虑了其在理解和分析设计功能方面的有用性。然后，它研究了与制造企业相关的设计活动的组织和地点，参考了对各国许多不同工业部门的实证研究，以及对设计功能演变的历史分析。
This paper's purpose is to make a first attempt at analysing the design function from a variety of disciplinary perspectives: economic, sociological and management. It explores what design is, and compares it to R&D and technological innovation. It surveys the literature on technological innovation and considers its usefulness in understanding and analysing the design function. It then examines the organisation and location of design activities in relation to manufacturing firms, referring to empirical studies of a number of contrasting sectors of industry in various countries, as well as to an historical analysis of the evolution of the design function.
