title	Space Tags and User Behavior Modeling - Applying agents to detect navigational patterns in urban streets
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2006.738

summary	Urban pedestrian studies on navigation have been conducted for developing applications to ease the task of exploring in a virtual environment. As navigation in virtual environments is evidently difficult and as many virtual worlds have been designed to be used by untrained visitors that explore the environment, navigational supports are critically needed. This study is aimed to collect information about the user needs in order to build a model of user preference and produce simulative scenarios that can reveal the navigational patterns related to street design. The study is based on the attention theory for studying people who are socially interacting with street activities and furniture within designated areas. Furthermore, the study attempts to apply agent interface develop a prototype system with space tags. Finally, the system and its applications, and major findings of these applications are reported

summary	The work described here builds on work reported previously on wireless access to digital city models. This paper presents a set of elements that contribute to such models. We look in particular at the issues of ground plane modeling, user location, user-device interface and information layering

summary	This study describes the requirement of lower limb disabled children. Lower limb disabled children that limit their movement in nowadays environment. Ubiquitous computing concept is more popular now. This research uses tangible user interface to be a toy accompanying children at home, combine ubiquitous computing concept to help them control the electronic equipment so that disable children can earn their lives.

title	DESIGN BY ACTIONS: An Affordance-based Modeling System in Spatial Design
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2006.x.p3k
source	CAADRIA 2006 [Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia] Kumamoto (Japan) March 30th - April 2nd 2006, 363-369
summary	From the viewpoint of interaction design, Gibson's affordance concept is interpreted as an emergent action possibility of the physical human-environment-system, which consists of three key components: the user, the environment, and the possible actions. It could help user to perform the suitable action within an artificial environment. This study aims to develop a formal description of affordance in spatial design. Using the formal description as groundwork, an affordance-based modeling system is then proposed to facilitate its further implementation in design and elucidate the new role of users and designers in spatial design. A simplified sink area design is used as an example to illustrate how this affordance-based modeling system works. For users of different conditions, different spatial arrangements in design will affect the performance and users’ behavior as well. This study demonstrates how design by action can be achieved, and then simulates the action sequence of different design solutions to evaluate the system performance.

title	SCALE - A street case library for environmental design with agent interfaces
source	Van Leeuwen, J.P. and H.J.P. Timmermans (eds.) 2006, Innovations in Design & Decision Support Systems in Architecture and Urban Planning, Dordrecht: Springer, ISBN-10: 1-4020-5059-3, ISBN-13: 978-1-4020-5059-6, p. 137-150
summary	Urban space provides a context for human interaction. Recently, urban planning has largely placed the user at the street as the centre of infrastructural design, with significant implications for the perceived attractiveness of user environments. However, visual observation is often difficult for verifying planning goals. The simulation of pedestrian behaviour is important for physical planning, but such research is scarce. In this study, we adopt an empirical approach for generating reactive path following. Further, we implement scenarios as computer scripts with agent-based interfaces to identify navigational patterns. Moreover, we built a hierarchy of individual behavioral models and define a behavior production system to control the agent. Key attributes of streets such as rest space, utilities, landmarks, and buildings have space tags as identifiers to associate streets with related activities.

title	TOWARDS A WEB-BASED URBAN STREET SIMULATOR FOR PEDESTRIAN BEHAVIORS STUDY WITH AGENT-BASED INTERFACES
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2006.x.g2a
source	CAADRIA 2006 [Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia] Kumamoto (Japan) March 30th - April 2nd 2006, 295-302
summary	The urban planning has largely placed the street users at the centre of infrastructural design, with significant implications for the perceived attractiveness of user environments. The urban designers faced with the task of designing such spaces and needs a tool that will allow different designs to be compared in terms of their attractiveness as well as their effectiveness. Therefore, this paper depicts an agent interface approach for creating a street simulator of user behaviors in urban street environments. We implemented the agent interface as individual-based simulation in the proposed project called "SCALE” (A Street Case Library for Environmental design). The project is demonstrated to find out differences between the simulation and the existed environment. The methodology and findings are reported.

title	AGENT-BASED SMART SKINS: Fuzzy-logic and neuro-fuzzy approaches to smart house design
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2006.x.s0x
source	CAADRIA 2006 [Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia] Kumamoto (Japan) March 30th - April 2nd 2006, 323-330
summary	Recent developments in sensor, computing, and information and communication technologies have inspired the creation of new smart devices and environments. This paper proposes a “smart skin” that is capable of actively inferring and detecting normal or abnormal status, making optimal decisions, and learning to adapt its functions to map environmental variations to occupant needs. This paper explores the potential of smart skins and proposes three key elements for their integration: (1) intelligent agents, (2) context awareness, and (3) fuzzy logic and neuro-fuzzy systems. Prototypes are demonstrated and further discussion is made.
