The terms '''design computing''' and other relevant terms including '''design and computation''' and '''computational design''' refer to the study and practice of design activities through the application and development of novel ideas and techniques in computing. One of the early groups to coin this term was the [[Key Centre of Design Computing and Cognition]] at the [[University of Sydney]] in Australia, which for
Whilst these terms share in general an interest in computational technologies and design activity, there are important differences in the various approaches, theories, and applications. For example, while in some circles the term
▲The terms '''design computing''' and other relevant terms including '''design and computation''' and '''computational design''' refer to the study and practice of design activities through the application and development of novel ideas and techniques in computing. One of the early groups to coin this term was the [[Key Centre of Design Computing and Cognition]] at the [[University of Sydney]] in Australia, which for nearly forty years (late 1960s to early 2000s) pioneered in the research, teaching, and consulting of design and computational technologies. This group organised the academic conference series "Artificial Intelligence in Design (AID)"<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://www.springer.com/us/book/9789401044004|title=Artificial Intelligence in Design ’94 {{!}} John S. Gero {{!}} Springer|language=en}}</ref> published by Springer during that period.

Other notable groups in this area are the Design and Computation<ref>architecture.mit.edu/computation/program/overview</ref> group at [[Massachusetts Institute of Technology]]'s School of Architecture + Planning and the Computational Design<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://arch.gatech.edu/computational-design|title=Computational Design {{!}} School of Architecture {{!}} Georgia Institute of Technology {{!}} Atlanta, GA|website=arch.gatech.edu|language=en|access-date=2017-11-13}}</ref> group at [[Georgia Tech]].

In that context, design computing is defined to be ''the use and development of computational models of design processes and digital media to assist and/or automate various aspects of the design process with the goal of producing higher quality and new design forms''.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://ses.library.usyd.edu.au//bitstream/2123/1024/1/architecture_2004.pdf|title=Faculty of Architecture Handbook 2004
▲Whilst these terms share in general an interest in computational technologies and design activity, there are important differences in the various approaches, theories, and applications. For example, while in some circles the term '''Computational Design''' refers in general to the creation of new computational tools and methods in the context of [[Computational Thinking]]<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://ubiquity.acm.org/article.cfm?id=3132087|title=Ubiquity: Computational design|website=ubiquity.acm.org|access-date=2017-11-13}}</ref>, '''Design Computing''' is concerned with bridging these two fields in order to build an increased understanding of design<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783319149554#aboutBook|title=Design Computing and Cognition '14 {{!}} John S.
