title	Modelisation of a Building During its Life Cycle
source	The Computer Integrated Future, CIB W78 Seminar. september, 1991. Unnumbered. includes bibliography
summary	The appreciation of the performance and the costs of a building should be carried out over the entire life of the building. The usual life cycle cost approach has to be extended to the external costs. Different models of the building-energy-environment system are proposed. The building description is based on a basic physical process model which is linked to the construction operations and cost elements used by quantity surveyors. The necessities for new data structures allowing different views of the data are discussed

title	Learning to Learn Through Computing: Sensitising Surveys and Empowering Urban Stakeholder's Input to Policy
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.1999.714
source	Architectural Computing from Turing to 2000 [eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 0-9523687-5-7] Liverpool (UK) 15-17 September 1999, pp. 714-721
summary	Reflection on three decades using computing at JMU, to teach survey techniques to planners, with application to community research projects, reveals that each computing "learning" threshold/milestone enabled each protagonist (research lecturer, planning student, professional and community-stakeholder),"to learn" more broadly. This facilitated more sensitive data-gathering-so empowering respondent/residents with more control to define data to influence urban policy. The seventies' mechanical processing and limited computing experience restricted data quality/depth. Hand-processing 'edge punch cards' recorded enriched variety and depth. Learning computing from Maths lecturers enabled students to learn to control SPSS program and data files. Maths lecturers' withdrawal necessitated the authors' learning, which brought control of the whole process, so facilitating informal inductive interviews-more open to respondents' control over topics to be discussed. Planners learning 3DCAAD-modelling, learned to conceptualise spatially. Community members used CAAD with greater ease, possibly through greater Internet and games experience. Free, EU-funded, private, government, and so on training schemes for Merseysiders, may enfranchise them to define and submit their own demands regarding urban regeneration, directly, through new technological channels (opened by Local Authorities). And new partnering, with private, public and developer agencies may drive these initiatives home.

title	Will Media Influence Learning? Reframing the Debate
source	Educational Technology Research and Development (1):1-31
summary	This article addresses the position taken by Clark that media do not influence learning under any conditions. The article reframes the questions raised by Clark to explore the conditions under which media will influence learning. Specifically, it posits the need to consider the capabilities of media, and the methods that employ them, as they interact with the cognitive and social processes by which knowledge is constructed. This approach is examined within the context of two major media-based projects, one which uses computers and the other video. The article discusses the implications of this approach for media theory, research, and practice.

title	Digital Origami: Modeling Planar Folding Structures
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.2011.x.o0g
source	Parametricism (SPC) ACADIA Regional 2011 Conference Proceedings
summary	This paper presents a surface manipulation tool that can transform any arrangement of folding planar surfaces without the need to custom program for each instance. Origami offers a finite set of paper-folding techniques that can be cataloged and tested with parametric modeling software. For this work, Rhinoceros and Grasshopper have been chosen as a software platform to generate a parametric folding tool focusing on single surface folding, particularly where surfaces can transform from one configuration to another while retaining their planarity.

summary	Since the great popularity of smartphones and tablets, many applications have been developed to create digital panoramas. However, its focus is turned for the seamless of the pictures and not what we can explore and understand of its different subjects. This article intends to investigate the use of a new concept of an app for digital panoramas. We assume that Panoramapp! can broaden the understanding the history of the cities by its panoramas and panoramic views, an alternative way to develop an iconographic hyper document of the central area of the city of Rio de Janeiro.

title	A Parametric Algorithm for Drawing Pictures of Solid Objects Composed of Quadric Surfaces
source	Communications of the ACM. October, 1976. vol. 19: pp. 555- 563. includes bibliography
summary	An algorithm for drawing pictures of three-dimensional objects, with surfaces made up of patches of quadric surfaces, is described. The emphasis of this algorithm is on calculating the intersections of quadric surfaces. A parametrization scheme is used. Each quadric surface intersection curve (QSIC) is represented as a set of coefficients and parameter limits. Each value of the parameter represents at most two points, and these may easily be distinguished. This scheme can find the coordinates of points of even quartic (fourth-order) intersection curves, using equations of no more than second order. Methods of parametrization for each type of QSIC are discussed, as well as surface bounding and hidden surface removal

title	Research on Architectural Sketch to Scheme Image Based on Context Encoder
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2023.1.069
source	Immanuel Koh, Dagmar Reinhardt, Mohammed Makki, Mona Khakhar, Nic Bao (eds.), HUMAN-CENTRIC - Proceedings of the 28th CAADRIA Conference, Ahmedabad, 18-24 March 2023, pp. 69–78
summary	Architects are used to hand drawing sketches to express the architectural creation intention. To present these abstract sketches, architects and teams need to convert sketches into architectural scheme images, which requires a lot of time and labour. Deep learning may have the potential to improve the efficiency of this work. The common sketch-to-image generation is based on Generative Adversarial Network (GAN), and the research of edge-to-image has made a big progress. But these methods require strict alignment of data pairs, which is difficult to achieve. Zhu et al. proposed the loss of Cycle-Consistent, which solved the problem that pairs of data sets are difficult to collect. However, most of the image translation methods require strict alignment between image data pairs, which can be achieved only for the edge mapping extracted from the image; but the sketch is very different from the edge. Due to the abstractness and fuzziness of the sketch, any simple distortion cannot complete the task of providing pixel-level alignment between the sketch and image; And image translation is the transfer of image features such as colour and texture. The original image has a strong constraint on the generated image, which makes the original structure of the image impossible to be changed. By image inpainting, we address this topic using a joint image completion approach with Context-Encoder, where the architectural sketch provides the image context for generating the scheme images. This setting has two advantages: first, the joint images can avoid the complexity of cross modal problems and the strict alignment of the data pairs as image-to-image translation; second, because of the weak constraint, the outputs have greater freedom, which perhaps can generate more imaginative results. The Context-Encoder generates scheme images on the data sets of general architectural sketches. The results present that the applicability of the completion method is better than that of the method of image translation. And scheme images that is different from the original architectural sketch contours have been generated.
