Abstract
Abstract The paper discusses a deductive strategy for the design of systems in contrast to the more conventional inductive strategy, and indicates the improvements which may be achieved by the use of the Ideals Concept. Practical examples are quoted indicating the effectiveness of the strategy

A Probabilistic Information Processing System uses men and machines in a novel way to perform diagnostic information processing that circumvents human conservatism in information processing and fragments the job of evaluating diagnostic information into small separable tasks.

It was found that such experts, although in different fields, have strong similarities in the steps of the strategy each used, and the applications of an empirical ten-step design strategy with function determination and ideal systems development as hallmarks have shown much better results.
