The aim of Design Science is to serve as the archival venue of science-based design knowledge across multiple disciplines. There is increasing recognition that design is a discipline in its own right with a holistic and multifaceted nature. Design knowledge is widely dispersed across fields with different terminologies, traditions and research practices. Rigorous design research is published primarily in discipline-oriented journals, most often inaccessible to wider audiences interested in design but without the requisite disciplinary depth. Design Science aims to facilitate communication across diverse fields and serve as a bridge across several communities, publishing original research but with a strong emphasis on accessibility by scholars from a diversity of disciplines. Design Science further aims to motivate scholars from these diverse fields to recognize the importance of their expertise to the design of artifacts and systems and thus pursue work with direct applicability to design.
Articles address the broad design research and education community, university scholars, and practicing professionals interested in state-of-the-art design knowledge.

This thematic collection aims to stimulate HCI design and research that will expand further from the traditional concept of the usable interaction to include aesthetics, empathy, security, responsibility, transparency, and trust.
The Design Science Journal thematic collection on Design Education aims to report on and stimulate discussion on research and practice in Design Education communities. This collection aims to reflect on the sudden and unforeseen changes in design educ
Advanced System Engineering offers a new comprehensive perspective in the planning, development, and operation of tomorrow's technical systems, integrating the fields of Advanced Systems, Systems Engineering, and Advanced Engineering.
Open Design is a radical way to conceive the creation, production, distribution, and use of products and services in a sustainable way; it challenges the traditional industrial domain by proposing a decentralized, highly collaborative process.
The aim of this thematic collection is to bring together leading edge research that focuses on the intersection of design and deep learning.
Design cognition analysis provides a basis for cognitive models and theories of design activity and is central to advancing scientific knowledge about designing.
This thematic collection seeks to capture exciting design neurocognition research across all neuroimaging modalities (fMRI, fNIRs, EEG, etc.), as well as to identify and delineate future directions for research in design neurocognition.
This Thematic Collection seeks to contain high quality and novel contributions reporting on how design research relates to design practice.
The purpose of this thematic collection is to selectively address and discuss actual topics along the entire value chain from material to design and fabrication, sharing achievements at the leading edge of research ...
Network-based modelling and analysis is an emerging approach in addressing complex relations in product and system designs and their interaction with broader product ecosystems. Networks are effective ...
