ABSTRACT
Though the attire is assumed as semiotics of civilization but ubiquitous computing is a field of computer engi-
neering that concerns the access and use of computing resources- ideally-in any place and at any time and
its realized as intelligent environment and in distant future with implants. Industrial garment design is mostly
based on product, process and ambience. In this foreign technology though, ambient intelligence is empha-
sized to achieve intelligent environment but 6Ts’ are considered collectively viz. nanotechnology, space tech-
nology, biology technology, culture technology, information technology and environment technology. Present-
ly, E-Textile software services are used to address these needs as it is event-driven service based software.

INTRODUCTION
Semiotic Engineering is the meta heuristic methodology for analysis of knowledge with a reverence to em-
phasize on cognitive psychology for system engineering to give a scientific approach in the hybrid domain of
social engineering, cosmogony (interoceptivity and exteroceptivity), humanities and sociology i.e. psycholo-
gy, politics, growth of society and science of nature leading to modality by conglomeration of intuition, com-
mon sense, knowledge, expertise and experience resulting in X- ability of product, process and ambience.
The goal of ergonomics or human factor engineering or engineering psychology is to improve human’s work
activity with flexibility so it should be treated as the sub function of X- ability for process design however
aesthetic attributes for product design respectively to avoid over functional chaos or exponential complexity.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION

Major finding for design with overall luxury handle index leads to multitasking of several modalities can
be termed as ‘Multimodality’ or ‘Conjoint Analysis Technique’ based on the multi-functionality with a rever-
ence to emphasize on co-creation; Therefore, semiotics is applied by architecting the expert system with
heuristics to achieve multitude of good design i.e. X ability; it is based on scenario which consists of both
engineering control system and physiological control system. Influencing factors can be quality based or
quantity based; however the focus is on engineering control system or digitalization as it includes both; with

Concluding with ‘Green Technology’ as it works in totality for designing industrial garments as major fac-
tors of mechanistic, animate, social and ecological are validated for valorization. Green technology is an
interesting and realistic conclusion because it is comprehensive, manageable and meaningful but it is
important to validate and valourize it as being adequate for the reality to fill the gap in a structural and sys-
tematic manner between competing theories and approaches known to date including circular and linear
economy. As per product design equipment; Fabric Assuring Simple Testing, Kawabata Evaluation System
are co-evoluted to (FAMOUS) Fabric Automated Measurement and Optimizing Universal System and for
its co-existence through cognitive engineering. Fabric Ultimate Requirement Identification and Optimizing
Universal System (FURIOUS) may be developed from Newton for optimized co-creation of utility function
and technical rationality through comprehensive functionality for industrial garment design. As electronic
waste management is a sustainable factor to be considered for designing industrial garments with ubiqui-
tous computing therefore ‘Green Technology’ is a well worn approach.
