在本文中,我们提出了新的命题设计的本体论和澄清其在理性和知识的一般背景下的位置。我们从两个不同的科学领域开发的正式设计理论之间的比较得出这样的本体论:工程和集合论。我们首先建立在工程设计理论的演变,在追求领域的独立性和“生成性”,导致正式的方法,同样的C-K理论,是独立的设计。然后,我们解释强迫,一种技术,在集理论开发的控制发明的新的集,作为一个通用的设计理论。通过比较C-K理论与Forcing的异同,我们发现它们在“D-本体论”、“类属扩展”、“对象修正”、“意义保持”和“K-重排”等概念上有共同之处。它们共同构成了一个“设计的本体论”,与设计的独特方面相一致。
In this paper we present new propositions about the ontology of design and a clarification of its position in the general context of rationality and knowledge. We derive such ontology from a comparison between formal design theories developed in two different scientific fields: Engineering and Set theory. We first build on the evolution of design theories in engineering, where the quest for domain independence and “generativity” has led to formal approaches, likewise C–K theory, that are independent of what has to be designed. Then we interpret Forcing, a technique in Set theory developed for the controlled invention of new sets, as a general design theory. Studying similarities and differences between C–K theory and Forcing, we find a series of common notions like “d-ontologies”, “generic expansion”, “object revision”, “preservation of meaning” and “K-reordering”. They form altogether an “ontology of design” which is consistent with unique aspects of design.
