01 - about us

About the SDAICO-2024

Academics are fully conscious to the existence of the developments that have taken place in the field of teaching and learning, not only in the Sultanate of Oman and the Arab countries, but throughout the world with the advent of sustainable design and artificial intelligence technologies and applications. And the ongoing debate in the academic world about the pros and cons of using this technology in the educational process in various higher education institutions. Here, universities and colleges have the task of leading the scientific discussion in a targeted manner and basing the expected change on solid scientific foundations in order to avoid negative effects of the use of artificial intelligence, as it is a technology that is available to everyone and is difficult to limit therefore, it must be employed in a way that serves the educational process, increases the quality of program outputs, and helps in promoting the product of scientific research in educational institutions according to a well-studied scientific methodology. Therefore, Oman College of Management and Technology, and on its behalf Dr. Hazem Miqdadi as the President of the proposed conference, intends to host the International Conference on Sustainable Design and Artificial Intelligence, Challenges and Opportunities (SDAICO-2024). It welcomes interested scientists and practitioners to present their knowledge about recent developments in theoretical and experimental research from all fields of design. Modern applications of artificial intelligence in design education, its current applications in the labor market and addressing best practices.

International & National Conference Organization

The Conference Aims & Objectives

SDAICO-2024 Conference seeks to bring together scholars, scientists, and industry professionals to explore the most recent developments and applications of artificial intelligence in sustainable design and business. The goal of the conference is to explore the ways that didactics and research could tackle the complex issues that the design sector faces. The conference maintains high-quality research by multiple blind reviewing processes which are done by experts and students in the fields of the conference and from various academic institutions. It also provides a platform for practitioners and educators to present and discuss the most recent trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions adopted in the fields of Design, and Artificial Intelligence.it provides an exceptional value for students, academics, and industry researchers.
