Norddesign 2018
August 14 - 17, 2017
Linköping University
Norddesign is a bi-annual Nordic conference, covering [product] design, design engineering and design education in its full width. Topics include engineering, manufacturing, aesthetics, emotions, ergonomics, sustainability, and business. Norddesign is known for its friendly and informal atmosphere. The conference will take place at Linköping University and is organized by the Division of Machine Design at the Department of Management and Engineering.
SUBMISSION
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The main theme of the 2018 conference is ‘design in the era of digitalization’, which covers a wide range of potential topics, ranging from the use of big data in the early phases of the design process, to the use of virtual reality in the design, and from the use of physical computing in design, to design automation. Topics include, but are not limited to:
- Big data in design
- Physical computing prototypes
- Design of cyber-physical systems
- Design automation
- Distributed design teams
Special tracks
Next to the main theme, we intend to host a number of special tracks, for which we are inviting submissions:
- Human-robot interaction
- Visualization and prototyping in design and engineering
- Affective Engineering
- Material Driven Design, in particular wood
- Circular product design
- Product platform design
- User centered design
Obviously there is also a general track for other papers within the scope of the conference. The abstract should contain between 300 and 500 words and should be uploaded on to the conference system (link) no later than 17 of December 2017.
