2024 2nd International Conference on Design Science (ICDS 2024)

Design Science is a catalyst for groundbreaking ideas, transformative experiences, new solutions, structured knowledge and innovative use. It is an interdisciplinary domain that focuses on the development and application of scientific methods to designing systems and processes. It combines elements of mathematics, physics, mechanical engineering, bioengineering, manufacturing processes, sensors, computing, automation and control. Design science plays a pivotal role in fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and driving innovation in product design, ultimately contributing to enhancing the quality of life.

The International Conference on Design Science (ICDS) is delighted to declare its upcoming event, hosted by the School of Mechanical Engineering at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, with SJTU-GEC Academy Center for Innovative Design for Interdisciplinary Studies, the Shanghai Society for Modern Design Theory and Methodology Research and Xie Youbai Design Science Research Foundation as co-sponsors. Following the achievements of the initial conference in 2023, ICDS 2024 persists in its pursuit of novel advancements and breakthroughs in design science, especially amid the rise of transformative technologies like big data, digital twin, and artificial intelligence.

ICDS 2024 emphasizes the significance of models and methodologies in design, especially in the context of new technologies and applications. Following the accomplishments of the first edition, which concluded successfully in 2023, the conference provides an invaluable platform for researchers, scientists, and industry practitioners to present their latest findings, engage in discussions about innovative solutions, and identify common interests for potential collaborations. The conference will cover a range of topics, including but not limited to:

• Design Science
