Ellen Yi-Luen Do, Ph.D., Associate AIA
Associate Professor, College of Architecture & School of Interactive
Computing
Director of ACME
Lab - A Creativity Machine Environment @ Georgia Tech
Director of Health
Space Futures - Healthcare Environment of the Future
Core Faculty at Health
System Institute Office @ HSI 210B (email for

Professor Do is committed to building better design tools, from
understanding the human intelligence involved in the design process and
leading to the improvement of the interface with computers. Her research
explores new modalities of communication, collaboration, and
coordination, as well as the physical and virtual worlds that push the
current boundaries of computing environments for design.
Professor Do has conducted empirical studies of design drawing and
constructed computer software to support creative design and analysis.
Her research work includes the development of freehand sketching, gesture
and physical objects as an intuitive interface to knowledge based design
systems, diagram indexing and retrieval to case-based systems, design
cognition and creativity, visual analysis tools, 3D sketching for
annotation and performance simulation,
and the area of visual and spatial reasoning in education. These research
efforts have been supported by NASA Space Grant, NSF IIS, CILT and CCLI.
Her papers have appeared in peer-reviewed international conferences and
journals on computer-aided design in architecture and civil engineering,
design studies, computer graphics, artificial intelligence, diagrammatic
reasoning and the human computer interactions.
She is a member of ACM, IEEE, ACADIA, and the AIA. She serves on the
editorial board for the International Journal of Architectural
Computing (IJAC, MultiScience) and Artificial Intelligence for Engineering
Design, Analysis and Manufacturing (AIEDAM, Cambridge University Press).
