Workshop Organisation
Different types of sessions will be held during the first two days (9am-6pm):
1) Substantial presentations (45min-1hour) of ongoing research in the research areas of the SIG
2) Round tables and /or open discussions on new approaches and emerging issues
3) Special sessions will be held to facilitate subgroup meetings on special topics or to discuss new research plans that could benefit from the cooperation of several SIG members and lead to new insights and co-publications
Based on the work done during the previous workshops, we will have special parallel sessions to discuss the following four topics:
· Design theory and creation in philosophy and culture
· Design theory and Artificial Intelligence
· Design theory and cognition and psychology
· Design theory and management
Final program and schedule: SIG Chairmen will compose the final program taking into account suggestions and proposals received from participants. Registration and submission for the workshop is detailed below.
