  SECOND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN DESIGN

      22-25 JUNE 1992, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, USA

This international conference series has been established to  provide  a
forum for the presentation and discussion of  the  state-of-the-art  and
cutting edge research and development results in artificial intelligence
in design. The first conference was held in Edinburgh in  June 1991  and
attracted papers and attendees from 21 countries.

Design  is  becoming  a  major  research  topic   in   engineering   and
architecture.  It  is  the  key  to  economic  competitiveness  and  the
fundamental precursor to manufacturing. However,  our  understanding  of
design as a process and our ability to model it are still very  limited.
This conference series  aims  to  provide  an  international  forum  for
developments in artificial intelligence in design.

Papers are invited on all aspects of artificial intelligence in  design.
Papers will  be  rigorously  refereed  by  an  international  board  and
accepted papers will be published as a  book.  The  conference  will  be
structured  to  provide  adequate  time  for   both   presentation   and
discussion.

TOPICS OF PARTICULAR INTEREST INCLUDE:
 -	knowledge-based design systems
 -	knowledge representation for design
 -	representing designs
 -	design process models
 -	constraint processes in design
 -	case-based reasoning in design
 -	machine learning for design
 -	models of creative design
 -	cognitive design models
 -	integrated design environments.

SUBMISSIONS
Five hard copies of full papers (abstracts will  not  be  accepted)  are
required by 2 December 1991. The first page  should  contain  the  paper
title, author's name, postal address, fax number and email address.  The
second page should contain the paper  title  and  abstract  without  any
author's identification. Papers will be refereed and authors of accepted
papers will be given the opportunity to revise their papers prior to the
final submission. Final versions of accepted  papers  will  need  to  be
formatted according to the publisher's instructions and should  be  less
than 20 pages. Authors of accepted papers will be  expected  to  sign  a
copyright release form to allow the publication of the proceedings.  One
author of each paper is expected to present the paper at the conference.
There will be a reduction in the conference fee for one author  of  each
accepted paper.
