Research: Actor network to support designers in decision making when developing content-packaging combinations

In order to integrate sustainability in the development of content-packaging combinations, the consequences of decisions for the entire life cycle need to be analyzed in early stages of the development process.
Researchers at the University of Twente, NL used a so-called actor network to support designers in decision making. This publication examines practical use situations of this actor network tool based on information from research partners. Scenarios are written in order to depict requirements for the actor network tool, considering different users and functionalities. An article about the research is published in the Procedia of the 21st CIRP Conference on Life Cycle Engineering.
