Default Question Concerning Wing-Anti-ice

Has anyone ever heard of a particular wing design which makes it less suceptible to in-flight icing ? Is it possible to design a wing to make it less likely to pick up ice in flight? Any guys out there, please share your thoughts?
In particular I'm curious about the DC-8 wing if there are any knowledgable pilots on-line. Also any studies or papers written on the subject will be appreciated! The flight manuals are sorely lacking in detailed explainations.
Thanks in advance.
Vito
