Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The upcoming Special Issue of Systems, entitled "Value Assessment of Product Service System Design", is focusing on exploring and evaluating the worth and effectiveness of product service system (PSS) design. The aim is to delve into methods and criteria for assessing the value PSS brings to various stakeholders, including manufacturers, users, and the environment. The Issue will cover topics like sustainable design, customer satisfaction, economic benefits, and environmental impacts, offering insights into how PSS can be designed and evaluated for maximum value generation.

The aim of this Special Issue is to present, exchange and compare various practical aspects in the field of PSS design and value generation via PSS designed for various industries.

This Special Issue welcomes original research articles, reviews, and literature reviews.

With the continuous evolution of artificial intelligence technology, AI drawing tools have emerged as highly esteemed instruments in the modern design industry. These tools, owing to their exceptional performance and innovative features, offer creators an unprecedented artistic experience. However, the factors influencing designers’ continuance intention to use AI drawing tools remain ambiguous. This study is grounded in the expectation–confirmation model–information systems continuance (ECM-ISC) model, which is further refined and hypothesized in light of the characteristics of AI drawing tools. Using structural equation modeling, we analyzed 398 valid questionnaire responses. The results elucidated the relationships of key constructs, such as perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, satisfaction, expectation confirmation, perceived playfulness, perceived switching cost, subjective norms, and perceived risk, on designers’ continuance intention. Notably, perceived ease of use, traditionally considered vital, did not result in a significant influence on continuance intention or perceived usefulness in this research. This insight offers new perspectives for AI drawing tool developers and designers, suggesting that while pursuing user friendliness, broader considerations affecting user decisions should be taken into account. This study not only enriches the theoretical framework but also provides valuable guidance for the practical field. Full article
