Published research on design rationale (DR) goes back at least 25 years. Judging by the number of publications and the variety of application domains, there has been a significant increase in related research activities in recent years. For example, there have been other special issues on design rationale (e.g., Carrol & Moran, 1991), workshops in international conferences (e.g., Lee, 1992; Chung & Bañares–Alcántara, 1994), and the first book on design rationale has just appeared (Carrol & Moran, 1996).
