Open design knowledge for Design Science Research

Explore, connect, and reuse design knowledge from DSR papers.

The DSR Knowledge Library represents design knowledge in the form of requirements, principles, features, and their relationships. Researchers can inspect individual papers, compare reusable knowledge across studies, and interact with a source-grounded chatbot.

Research workflows

What researchers can do

The interfaces expose what is currently represented without assuming that every paper contains every DSR category.

01

Inspect paper-level design maps

View the requirements, objectives, principles, and features represented for a paper, then inspect their linked source records.

02

Search reusable design knowledge

Retrieve linked concepts across the corpus and compare represented mechanisms, requirements, and design approaches.

03

Generate grounded decision-support flows

Combine retrieved knowledge into proposed artifact directions while keeping stored concepts visibly distinct from synthesis.

04

Verify grounding

Open cited concepts and consult original publication resources where available.

Representative records

Featured papers

Selected deterministically from papers with richer represented design-knowledge coverage; this is not a scientific ranking.
