7. Redesign the solution with modifications

Because testing often uncovers design weaknesses, or at least provides additional information you will want to use, repeat the entire process, taking what you have learned and reworking your design or moving on to reprototyping and retesting. Continue this refining cycle throughout the development process until you are satisfied with the results.

1. State the problem and clarify the specifications and constraints
2. Research and investigate the problem
3. Generate alternative designs
4. Choose and justify optimal design
5. Develop a prototype
6. Test and evaluate the design solution
7. Redesign the solution with modifications
8. Communicate your achievements
9. Reenter the design cycle at any step to revise
