Abstract or Description

We examine DfE innovation efforts and whether they should be channeled towards product or process improvement. Product improvements would be supported by R&D efforts and better received by consumers. Process improvements would lead to lower costs but such efforts would not impact consumer preferences since they are invisible to consumers.
