The technologies applied in design studies vary from basic theories to more application-based systems. Intelligence engineering also plays a significant role in design sciences such as computer-aided industrial design, human factor design, and greenhouse design, and intelligent engineering technologies such as computational technologies, sensing technologies, and video detection encompass both theory and application perspectives. Being multidisciplinary in nature, intelligence engineering promotes cooperation, exchange and discussion between organizations and researchers from diverse fields. This book presents the proceedings of DSIE 2022, the International Symposium on Design Studies and Intelligence Engineering, held in Hangzhou, China, on 29 & 30 October 2022. This annual conference proves a platform for professionals and researchers from industry and academia to exchange and discuss recent advances in the field of design studies and intelligence engineering, inviting renowned experts from around the world to speak on their specialist topics, and allowing for in-depth discussion with presenters. The 189 submissions received were each carefully reviewed by 3 or 4 referees, and the 62 papers accepted for presentation and publication were selected based on their scores. Papers cover a very wide range of topics, from the design of a bachelor apartment, or a children’s backpack for healthy spine development, to interpretable neural symbol learning methods and design elements extraction from point-cloud datasets using deep enhancement learning. Offering a varied overview of recent developments in design and intelligence engineering, this book will be of interest to all those working in the field.

As one begins to explore the many complexities of quantum computing, nanotechnology, and AI, it becomes clear that there is an underlying reality within cyberspace that is comprised of other realities and that these realities all have their own biomes, ecosystems, and microbiomes built on information, energy, and human creative reality and potential. It is clear that there has not been much research on this , especially the piece dealing with the cyber microbiome, which looks at the part of the iceberg that is “under the surface” and makes up most of cyberspace, much like how our human microbiome is many orders of magnitude larger than our human cells. The microbiome is extremely important from the perspective of how to treat diseases in humans, especially bacterial infections. The same is true for how to treat “diseases” in the cyber meta-reality. Thus, knowing all we can about the cyber meta-reality, biome, and microbiome is absolutely necessary in ensuring this world’s growth, care, and flourishing.

Hailed by Publishers Weekly as "a potent primer on the need to rein in big tech" and Kirkus Reviews as "a rock-solid plan for controlling the tech giants," readers will be energized by Tom Wheeler's vision of digital governance. Featured on Barack Obama's 11/3/23 list of "What I’m Reading on the Rise of Artificial Intelligence" An accessible and visionary book that connects the experiences of the late 19th century’s industrial Gilded Age with its echoes in the 21st century digital Gilded Age. Hailed by Ken Burns as one of the foremost “explainers” of technology and its effect throughout history, Tom Wheeler now turns his gaze to the public impact of entrepreneurial innovation. In Techlash, he connects the experiences of the late 19th century’s industrial Gilded Age with its echoes in the 21st century digital Gilded Age. In both cases, technology innovation and the great wealth that it created ran up against the public interest and the rights of others. As with the industrial revolution and the Gilded Age that it created, new digital technology has changed commerce and culture, creating great wealth in the process, all while being essentially unsupervised. Warning that today is not the “Fourth Industrial Revolution” some envision, Wheeler calls for a new era of public interest oversight that leaves behind industrial era regulatory ideas to embrace a new process of agile, supervised and enforced code setting that protects consumers and competition while encouraging continued innovation. Wheeler combines insights from his experience at the highest echelons of business and government to create a compelling portrait of the need to balance entrepreneurial innovation with the public good.
