摘要
Problem formulations in natural language imply imprecision, ambiguity, incompleteness, conflict and inconsistency between requirements in a design problem. Recursive Object Model (ROM) based problem formulation in conceptual design extracts complete product requirement from design problems structured initially in natural language. Since ROM carries certain semantic and syntactic information implied in natural language, it is used to formulate a design problem through a question asking approach. The scope of this paper is to present an updated algorithm, question templates, rules and detailed procedures to ask generic questions based on ROM representations. Generic questions are needed for the clarification and extension of the meaning of a design problem in order to overcome the imprecisions, ambiguities, conflicts and inconsistencies of problem descriptions in natural language. The updated algorithm, question templates, rules and detailed procedures for asking generic questions are used in a case study to formulate the development of a Total Quality Management system (TQMS).
