Our goals

Design of complex artifacts and systems requires the cooperation of multidisciplinary design teams using multiple sophisticated commercial and non-commercial engineering tools such as CAD tools, modeling, simulation and optimization software, engineering databases, and knowledge-based systems. Individuals or individual groups of multidisciplinary design teams usually work in parallel and separately with various engineering tools, which are located on different sites, often for quite a long time. At any moment, individual members may be working on different versions of a design or viewing the design from various perspectives, at different levels of details. In order to meet these requirements, it is necessary to have efficient computer supported collaborative design systems. These systems should not only automate individual tasks, in the manner of traditional computer-aided engineering tools, but also enable individual members to share information, collaborate and coordinate their activities within the context of a design project. This technical committee focuses on research and development on CSCW techniques as well as their applications to collaborative design, manufacturing, construction, other businesses and industries. This technical committee is based on the stand-alone international working group on the same topic established in 1998. It provides a forum for researchers and practitioners involved in different but related domains to exchange ideas and discuss key issues on the development of CSCW techniques and their applications to collaborative design, manufacturing, construction, businesses, and services.

What we are doing

  • Annual international conferences on Computer Supported Cooperative Work in Design (http://www.cscwd.org/)
  • Annual Technical Committee member meetings at CSCWD conferences and IEEE SMC conferences
  • Special session(s) at annual IEEE SMC conferences
  • Special issues based on CSCWD conferences with the IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, Part A or C, International Journal of Advanced Engineering Informatics, Computers in Industry, etc.


Why don't you join us?

  • Interacting with researchers and practitioners within an established international collaboration network with a history of 11 successful international conferences.
  • Exchanging research ideas and developing collaborations.
  • Publishing research results in a timely manner through international conferences and journal special issues.
  • Meeting old friends and making new friends from different parts of the world
