Abstract:

This thesis conceptualizes the term movement as a design medium for producing architecture. The Deleuzian discourse which defines movement as mobile section of duration comprises the theoretical frame of the study. Santiago Calatrava&amp<br>#8217<br>s architectural thinking and practice constitute the pragmatic ground on which the Deleuzian formulation of movement is constructed. Mobile structures of Calatrava are analyzed to introduce some design tools that are used to utilize movement as a design medium.

Abstract:

This thesis presents an architecture, which we call GRUE, for intelligent agents in real-time dynamic worlds. Such environments require agents to be able to flexibly adjust their behaviour to take into account changes in the environment or other agents’ actions. Our architecture is based on work done in robotics (Nilsson, 1994; Benson and Nilsson, 1995; Benson, 1996), which also deals with complex, dynamic environments. Our work focuses on goal arbitration, the method used by the agent to choose an appropriate goal for the current situation, and to re-evaluate when the situation changes. In th

The future of the architectural profession faces continued uncertainty in the twenty-first century.

Based on existing trends, and personal experience in the profession, this thesis finds the influence of traditional practices will become limited to small scale and niche projects - should the title of architect survive continued government

Abstract:

The interplay between architectural design and human psychology is significant, yet it remains largely unnoticed or even ignored both in and outside the design industry. Moreover, the relationship between design and psychology is not only consequential, it is bidirectional. On the one hand, successful design has been shown to have clear psychological and physiological impacts; on the other, psychology, human experience, and the function of our neurological systems all play a significant role in what we perceive to be successful design.

This study challenges these claims within an architectural context, by examining the fundamentally visual nature of architecture and inhabitation as well as the spatio-visual practices, acts and strategies that we use to occupy space. Drawing on theory and practice-based methods from outside the professional limits of architectural practice, the study implements

Abstract:

Accessibility in the landscape has gained increased attention in recent years, and the practice of Universal Design, rather than providing ‘accessible’ accommodations as separate, distinct elements within the landscape, attempts to address social issues such as segregation by proposing an integrated accessibility and design for a diverse society. However, while proposing integration, it can be criticized as designing to the lowest common denominator and clinging to the idea of a ‘disabled’ population which must be designed down to.

In this thesis we study at a concrete practical level how computation with action potentials (spikes) can be performed. We address the problem of pro- gramming a dynamical system modeled as a neural network and considering both, hardware and software implementations. For this, we use a discrete- time spiking neuron model, which has been introduced in Soula et al. (2006), and called BMS in the sequel, whose dynamics is rather rich (see section 1.2.4). On one hand, we propose an efficient method to properly estimate the parameters (delayed synaptic weights) of a neural network from the observa-

In its aftermath, professionals sought to revive the traditional city fabric starting from the block, as the basic element. Although recent developments produce blocks, the livability of streets and other public spaces remains questionable. With a newfound focus into th

Abstract:

This is a qualitative exploratory study of Software Architecture in Cyber-Physical Ecosystems. Software Architecture plays a pivotal role to Software Ecosystems and, apart from Functional and non-Functional requirements, it is affected by factors of a different nature. The purpose of this paper is to identify these factors and describe their relationship with the ecosystem’s architecture. Several owners of Cyber-Physical systems are in the process of setting up new ecosystems by sharing functionalities of their proprietary platform with third-party developers. This makes Architecture that supp

Abstract:

Noise can be defined as unwanted sound. There are many cases and applications that reducing noise level is of great importance. Loss of hearing is only one of the effects of continuous exposure to excessive noise levels. Noise can interfere with sleep and speech, and cause discomfort and other non-auditory effects. High level noise and vibration lead to structural failures as well as reduction in life span. The importance of noise issue could be well understood by looking at regulations that have been passed by governments to restrict noise production in society. Industrial machinery, air/surf

Abstract:

I pull from what I see in my urban surroundings. There is always a sense of dread fused with optimism that prevails. Is it beautiful? Fragments of low-riders and tricked-out cars become symbols of desire and the glowing red lens of a stop light becomes a Cyclops poised to defend his garden. Candy-coated, blooming, dripping and seductively slick confronts you with the obvious warning: STOP! You could be next The grass really is greener on The Other Side of the Fence. At least until winter comes.

Abstract:

Topological features of an object are fundamental in image processing. In many applications,including medical imaging, it is important to maintain or control the topology of the image. Howeverthe design of such transformations that preserve topology and geometric characteristics of the inputimage is a complex task, especially in the case of parallel processing.Parallel processing is applied to accelerate computation by sharing the workload among multipleprocessors. In terms of algorithm design, parallel computing strategies profits from the naturalparallelism (called also partial order of algo

Abstract:

The Richmond Maker Museum is a working museum design, offering an inside look at past achievements, juxtaposed with the unlimited future possibilities of an evolving, active maker culture. It is a dynamic place designed to allow makers to showcase skills, take risks, engage the public, and grow their craft in real time. The museum displays finished pieces, introduces makers, demonstrates the processes they employ in their work, and invites the community to meet the artisans who, through skill, ingenuity, and hard work, make the artifacts on display. This type of educational museum experience d
