>broad sweep to construct a transdisciplinary dialogue which
>encompasses the perspectives and practices of: anthropology,
>architecture, art, artificial intelligence, business, cognitive
>science, communication studies, computer science, cultural studies,
>design studies, education, e-learning, engineering, ergonomics,
>fashion, graphic design, history, information systems, industrial
>design, industrial engineering, instructional design, interior
>design, interaction design, interface design, journalism, landscape
>architecture, law, linguistics and semiotics, management, media and
>entertainment, psychology, sociology, software engineering,
>technical communication, telecommunications, urban planning and
>visual design.

>Conference will also include numerous paper, workshop and colloquium
>presentations by practitioners, teachers and researchers. We would
>particularly like to invite you to respond to the Conference
>Call-for-Papers. Presenters may choose to submit written papers for
