ICSEM 2011 - 2011 International Conference on System Science, Engineering Design and Manufacturing Informatization (ICSEM)

We solicit research papers and case studies on any theme related to design thinking, theory, and practice. We place a premium on evidence-based research. Mindful of earlier conferences in the series we offer the following themes of interest and invite authors to take a specific point-of-view. We anticipate that issues at the intersections will be of particular relevance and interest.

+Points-of-View

ICSEM 2010 is centered around offering a multitude of differing perspectives on system science , engineering design and manufacturing informatization. You are encouraged to submit papers written from one of the points-of-view provided, or alternatively you may design your own specific point-of-view.

+Themes

Papers submitted to the conference are expected to address one of the themes listed below. To help us choose the appropriate reviewers for your paper, you will be required to indicate which themes your paper covers. Papers should be maximum 4 pages in length (extra pages must pay extra fees and not be exceed 6 pages in total) and those that are accepted in a double-blind review will be published in the proceedings. At the conference, authors of all accepted papers are given the opportunity to present.
