We live in a city and each day our life gets intertwined with the city that we live in. At This Time is a collection of short stories of five cities - Prague, New York, Paris, Mumbai and Kolkata. As the protagonists journey through the streets and lanes of the cities, they explore love, relationship and hatred. Every person has a story and in each city a million stories are thriving every minute. We stop time in these cities and we look though the hourglass into the lives of Andrea, Aafke, Ananya, Riya, Keith, Nikolai, Anupama, Shruti and Aditya.

The contributions are organized in topical sections named: HCI and Design, Design Foundations, Design Foundations, Design in Healthcare, Advances in Data Science and Analytics, ICT for Development, Designing Cybersecurity, and Design Applications.
