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 fifty years (late 1960s to today) pioneered 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/9789401052382|title=Artificial Intelligence in Design '92 {{!}} John S. Gero {{!}} Springer|language=en}}</ref> published by Springer during that period. AID was later renamed "Design Computing and Cognition (DCC)"<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://dccconferences.org/dcc18/|title=Eighth International Conference on Design Computing and Cognition DCC'18 or DCC18|last=Gero|first=John|website=dccconferences.org|access-date=2017-11-13}}</ref> and is currently a leading biannual conference in the field. 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]].
