This research is intended as an initial step toward the development of a rigorous science of design for software-intensive systems. Our work, based on existing research, has provided new definitions for design, science of design, and software-intensive systems. By identifying design issues currently affecting the field, we will show why software-intensive systems require a science of design. We have also provided some functional requirements for a science of design, what it must address, and how it might do so. We anticipate that these definitions and ideas will be embraced within the research community, and be utilized as a foundation for continued investigation. This work is a starting point for future research toward a science of design with extensive references and ideas for further research.
