Top-Down Versus Bottom-Up Nanoengineering Routes to Design Advanced Oropharmacological Products

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2016
Energy intensive and chemical routes predominately govern modern dental material fabrication involving complex physicochemical approaches. Current interest in dental material design is shifting towards biomineralization method and green chemistry synthesis to support oral tissue biocompatibility and oropharmacology.

Multimodal Microorganism Development: Integrating Top-Down Biological Engineering with Bottom-Up Rational Design

Trends in Biotechnology, 2020
Biological engineering has unprecedented potential to solve society's most pressing challenges. Engineering approaches must consider complex technical, economic, and social factors. This requires methods that confer gene/pathway-level functionality and organism-level robustness in rapid and cost-effective ways.

Modelling an ongoing design process utilizing top-down and bottom-up design strategies

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part B: Journal of Engineering Manufacture, 2008
The product design process plays a central role in ensuring that new products are realized with improved quality, in a short lead-time and with costs kept to a minimum. It is identified that making decisions dynamically on how the design process should proceed is not trivial.

Bottom-up, Top-down? Connecting Software Architecture Design with Use

2008
Participatory design has traditinally focused on the design of technology applications or the co-realisation of a more holostic socio-technical bricolage of new and existing technologies and pratices. 'Infrastructural' design issues like software architectures, programming languages, communication, security, and resource models do not seen to be in ...

Ordering effects in nested ‘top-down’ and ‘bottom-up’ contingent valuation designs

Ecological Economics, 2003
Abstract Within a contingent valuation (CV) survey ordering effects are defined where responses to a given question vary in a theoretically unanticipated manner according to the positioning of that question relative to others in the survey instrument.

Designing redox metalloproteins from bottom-up and top-down perspectives

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2003
The design of redox-active metalloproteins has been approached from two different directions. The de novo design approach has recently reached an important stage, at which structural information on several different designed metalloproteins has been obtained. This new information highlights the real challenge of this approach.

Top-down or bottom-up? – How environmental benchmarks can support the design process

open access: closedBuilding and Environment, 2019
Abstract Buildings are responsible for a large share of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The use of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) during the design phase can help to improve the environmental performance of buildings. However, designers and clients find it difficult to set environmental performance targets and interpret the results obtained through LCA ...

Balancing Participatory Design Approaches in Slum Upgradation: When Top-Down Meets Bottom-Up!

open access: closed, 2020
The chapter discusses a participatory planning approach utilised for informal (slum) settlement upgradation. A review of approaches identifies the failures of top-down processes and demonstrates the challenges of bottom-up processes. A middle-ground planning approach, where top-down spatial solutions grounded in disciplinary knowledge mesh with the ...
