| Engineering Design Process | Is a systematic, iterative, problem-solving strategy, with criteria and constraints, used to develop many possible solutions to a problem to satisfy human needs and wants. |
| Criteria | Specifications and requirements that must be included in a product. |
| Constraint | A limitation in a product or device, requirements or specifications that could not be implemented due to cost or some other trade-off. Constraints may include physical, biological, economic, political, social, ethical, and aesthetic concerns but almost always involve time, budget, and safety issues. |
| Trade-off | A decision process recognizing the need for careful compromises among competing factors. Requirements of a design (criteria and constraints) sometimes compete with each other. |
