The article discusses how the traditional way of designing systems using technical rationalization may not always be effective. It compares this approach with design thinking, which is based on how experienced designers solve problems. The researchers suggest that the mismatch between the nature of the design problem and the engineering approach can lead to challenges in meeting project requirements. They recommend dividing the development process into architecting and engineering, increasing prototyping, showing iteration in process models, and delaying commitment to design decisions.
