summary	Machine learning enables computers to learn without being explicitly programmed. This paper outlines state-of-the-art implementations of machine learning approaches to the study of physical material properties based on Elastomer we developed, which combines with robotic automation and image recognition to generate a computable material model for non-uniform linear Elastomer material. The development of the neural network includes a few preliminary experiments to confirm the feasibility and the influential parameters used to define the final RNN neural network, the study of the inputs and the quality of the testing samples influencing the accuracy of the output model, and the evaluation of the generated material model as well as the method itself. To conclude, this paper expands such methods to the possible architectural implications on other non-uniform materials, such as the performance of wood sheets with different grains and tensile material made from composite materials.

source	Proceedings of Second International Workshop on CSCW in Design, ed. P. Siriruchatapong, Z. Lin & J.-P. Barthes. Second International Workshop on CSCW in Design, Beijing: International Academic Publishers, November, pp. 400-405
summary	This paper considers one of the fundamental questions behind research and implementation into collaborative design systems for architectural design: To what extent is design situated and to what extent is it expert behaviour? Extending from this question arises implementation questions for CSCW systems for architectural design. The authors propose a cognitive model of design and tested the model experimentally. From the results of the experiments; a discussion is presented of the expert and situated facets of the design process which have been manifested.

title	Eelish 2.0: Grasshopper Plugin for Automated Grid-Driven Column-Beam Placement on Orthogonal Floor Plans - Formalising manual workflow into an algorithm through empirical analysis
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2021.1.427
source	Stojakovic, V and Tepavcevic, B (eds.), Towards a new, configurable architecture - Proceedings of the 39th eCAADe Conference - Volume 1, University of Novi Sad, Novi Sad, Serbia, 8-10 September 2021, pp. 427-436
summary	The implicitly parametric if-else logic of determining column-beam locations is applied manually on virtually every orthogonal design, thereby inflating workhours and cost through unnecessary repetition of labour. This paper presents the development of a generative algorithm (developed as Grasshopper plugin Eelish 2.0) that automates the placement of column centre points and beam centre lines on orthogonal floor plans. The manual process of column-beam placement is formalised as the algorithm through empirical analysis of layouts drawn by architects. The placement is executed iteratively from the largest room to the smallest room. It is guided by local and/or global orthogonal grids that are generated using walls of other rooms and beams of rooms calculated till the previous iteration. The placements are controlled by the maximum and minimum allowed spans of slabs, and four modes of grid generations. The generated layouts have a qualitative 'Satisfactory' or better approval rating of 82.4% by architects and 88.4% by structural engineers.

title	Esplendores virtuales, alternativas reales [ Splendours Virtual; Real Alternatives]
source	SIGraDi 2009 - Proceedings of the 13th Congress of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics, Sao Paulo, Brazil, November 16-18, 2009
summary	Methods for parametric design and virtual modeling have reached a remarkable degree of development, but their separation from real construction is increasing. Fuller's Dymaxion Bathroom failed, around 1930, due to union opposition. The restaurant Georges (Paris, 2000) designed by MacFarlante and Jakob had to be built, like other recent projects, by a boat manufacturing company. We are at an unprecedented crossroads. It is proposed that part of the current research design would be redirected, although it seems unfeasible, to the reorganization of the construction industry.

title	Managing Actors and Building Information for Supply Chain Integration
source	Parametricism Vs. Materialism: Evolution of Digital Technologies for Development [8th ASCAAD Conference Proceedings ISBN 978-0-9955691-0-2] London (United Kingdom) 7-8 November 2016, pp. 187-196
summary	Supply Chain (SC) integration has been a long-standing issue. With the advent of Building Information Modelling (BIM) and its influence on inter-organisational relations, SC integration is again highly relevant. This study explores the conditions for SC integration from deploying BIM and SC management (SCM) philosophy. A set of topics from literature, pertinent to BIM and SCM, are confronted with the experiences of experts from the industry during a workshop. The bottom-up BIM initiatives and relational management were deemed more decisive than adhering to top-down BIM policies and operational SCM for managing actors and information and inciting SC integration.

title	A BIM Platform for Offsite Timber Construction
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2015.1.597
source	Martens, B, Wurzer, G, Grasl T, Lorenz, WE and Schaffranek, R (eds.), Real Time - Proceedings of the 33rd eCAADe Conference - Volume 1, Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, Austria, 16-18 September 2015, pp. 597-604
summary	This paper discusses the potential of a BIM platform for offsite timber construction within the context of the UK construction industry. It examines the benefits, limitations, and challenges that BIM brings for offsite timber. Proof-of-concept projects are presented that deal with the architectural technology, structural engineering, and life cycle analysis aspects. These demonstrate the feasibility of the development of an open BIM platform which would establish a common standard for the industry. The paper concludes by suggesting an alternative business model for offsite timber construction, as enabled by Building Information Modelling.

title	Learning Math and Digital Prototyping with Mobile Digital Fabrication Lab
source	SIGraDi 2018 [Proceedings of the 22nd Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISSN: 2318-6968] Brazil, São Carlos 7 - 9 November 2018, pp. 1078-1083
summary	It is well known that Math learning processes common used within elementary school phases are not necessarily competent. Students are rarely capable of relating acquired knowledge with day by day activities and memorizing practices are encouraged by teachers. On the other hand, the use of games during learning development is an important alternative that brings interest, playful and real knowledge of content assimilation. This paper describes how digital fabrication tools were used by students to develop and build game prototypes as an option on Math learning. The experience was accomplished through a Mobile Digital Fabrication Lab as an instrument that brought these technologies to students.

summary	Representation is a key concept for understanding the social uses of technologies associated with manipulation, presentation, storage and maintenance of geographic information.This paper refers to forms of space representation, essentially derived from cartographic techniques, that bases many web applications which aid to promote the development of new forms of social interaction and influence the perception and use of public spaces. The paper discusses the relationship between spatial representation, spatial knowledge and technologies of representation and visualization of space.

title	Sistema de seguimiento solar de bajo costo para instalaciones fotovoltaicas domésticas [Low-cost solar tracking system for domestic photovoltaic installations]
source	SIGraDi 2011 [Proceedings of the 15th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Argentina - Santa Fe 16-18 November 2011, pp. 118-122
summary	The ongoing research is focused on the development of a low-cost solar tracking system to improve domestic fixed PV installations which performance is dramatically diminished due to the absence of reorientation mechanisms to maximize solar energy capture. A straightforward way to reduce fabrication and maintenance costs of a domestic solar tracking system is to avoid the use of photoresistors. Most solar trackers use photoresistors to reorient their PV panels. However, the daily and seasonal solar path is well known and its variation is negligible when comparing photoresistorbased and preprogrammed reorientation against the amount of solar energy that is captured.
