Definition

A systematic method for evaluating, redesigning, and implementing concepts—treated as artifacts—so that they better serve specified epistemic, semantic, practical, or normative purposes; it prescribes comparative criteria (e.g., clarity, explanatory power, applicability) and procedures for proposing and assessing conceptual revisions and their downstream effects.
