Overview
DesignFest ® is new this year! We are going to celebrate and explore the design process. Where is the line between building and designing? Where is the line between art and engineering? DesignFest ® will explore this question by having teams of attendees attack the same problem in different ways including: traditional methodologies, test-driven design, prototyping, and scrap-heap programming. At the end of the session, the teams will participate in a round-table discussion of the various artifacts produced and the relative merits of the various design approaches.

More details will follow, including a full schedule.
