TL;DRAbstract

The design process cannot be readily characterized. That is, there is not a set of step-by-step rules by which a successful design can be realized. Furthermore, even after a design that satisfies all requirements is completed, it may be difficult to judge whether it is indeed optimal. It is not uncommon at a project's completion for those involved to express the thought that if only they had done it another way, it would have been so much easier – the benefit of hindsight.
