This
International conference is aimed to bring together a community
of academics, researchers and practitioners that are involved
in every aspect of Design Science. The importance of design
was first brought to light by Herbert Simon’s famous
“Sciences of the Artificial”. Since then, a
whole body of research whose goal is to design and invent
methods, processes and systems has emerged. The creation
of IT artifacts and their evaluation is central to this
paradigm. This conference will explore both the design methodology
aspects as well as research conducted using design science.
The objective of the conference is to bring together researchers
from different backgrounds ranging from computer science,
information systems, and software engineering to social
ethnography designers to create a forum for discussing novel
solutions to emerging problems.
We encourage contributions in all areas of design science.
We are seeking design theory papers, design research methodology
papers and topics papers with special emphasis on the science
of design. We encourage contributions in all areas of design
science. Areas of interest include, but are not limited
to:
