CONTRIBUTIONS
The DESIGN 2006 Conference invites high-quality submissions on substantial,
original and previously unpublished research. Applied, theoretical,
results-oriented and speculative papers from both academia and industry
will all be considered for inclusion. Contributions should be classified
into and will be reviewed in the following categories:
- Research Papers - describing contributions and the latest results of
scientific work.
- Design Education Papers should be based on a scientific approach describing
substantial new experiences based on design education training, teamwork,
projects or cases.
- Industrial Papers should signal industrial needs for design
approaches/techniques, experiences from their implementation and use,
experiences from training of engineers, demands on computer support,
best practice, qualitative case studies, etc.
- Philosophy or Speculations provide a category for papers where the author
has a free hand to evolve new ideas without a claim for scientific validation.
However, the paper should be rigorously related to state-of-the-art
literature and clearly indicate the novelty of the ideas.
CONCEPT AND PROGRAMME
The organizers of the DESIGN Conferences are tending to develop the conference
beyond the traditional role of delivering research reports and findings in to
a place where participants can pro-actively create opportunities for knowledge
exchange alongside program chairs, reviewers and organizing teams.
Papers will be presented on the plenary sessions, topic oriented sessions,
workshops and as active poster sessions.
REVIEW PROCESS AND PUBLICATION OF PAPERS
The papers will be accepted on the double blind review basis made by the
members of the Scientific Advisory Board. The review criteria will be the
novelty and level of contribution, validity of conclusions, industrial or
application perspective and formal qualities of the contribution.
For speeding up and simplifying the paper reviewing, please note:
only full paper submission.
The reviewed and accepted full papers will be published in the Conference
Proceedings provided the final papers are received by the appropriate deadline
and conform to the layout guidelines. The Conference Proceedings will be
distributed to the participants at the Conference site and will be available
after the Conference under an ISBN number as a hardcopy and a CD.
Outstanding papers will be recommended for publication in selected journals.
