DESIGN ASSISTANCE DEVICE AND DESIGN ASSISTANCE METHOD

摘要

Provided is a design assistance device that can allow designers to easily figure out an efficient order of considering design items. The design assistance device includes: structure item determination means (11) for determining structure items related to a design object; performance item determination means (12) for determining performance items related to the structure items; performance-structure map creation means (13) for creating a performance-structure map in which correlations between the determined structure items and the determined performance items are shown in a matrix; and flow map creation means (14) for creating a flow map by rearranging each of an order of the structure items and an order of the performance items in the performance-structure map based on the correlations between the structure items and the performance items.
