summary	This paper will present a prototype open source CAD system developed recently by a join effort among Harvard, CMU, and MIT. The system is composed of an expandable user interface, a data structure that supports 2D and 3D objects, image processing capabilities, animation, network communication (TCP/IP), serial interface, and file processing modules that can be expanded. The idea was to develop seed modules that can interact with one another in order to be modified, expanded, or new ones added. The language used is Processing and the setup is made to be implemented in an open source format (i.e. GNU and Google Code). The system is an open source universal architectural CAD system that will hopefully serve as the software standard for education and practice.

title	Structural Analysis as Driver in Surface-based Design Approaches
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2007.109
source	Predicting the Future [25th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 978-0-9541183-6-5] Frankfurt am Main (Germany) 26-29 September 2007, pp. 109-115
summary	This ongoing research argues for novel strategies to integrate structural analysis data in an architectural design approach. Instead of a linear procedure of synthesis, analysis and post-rationalisation a synthesis/analysis loop is installed that uses structural analysis data as design driver from early on. The approach is not aiming for a pure force-driven form-finding or optimization process but regards structural performance as one design criteria among others. Equilibrium between multiple parameters is aspired instead of a single-parameter-optimum. The research is conducted by a custom-made digital interface between a 3d modelling software and an application for structural analysis of space frames structures. Surfaces are translated into meshes with supports at user-defined nodes and then exposed to its dead load in the structural analysis software. The resulting nodal deviation is feed into an algorithm that steers the appropriate reaction towards the local stresses and deviations, taking into account the mesh topology, its supports and their position in the mesh. The initial mesh is optimized in shape transformed back into a double-layer surface model in the 3d software which evolves into an interconnected two-layer space frame. An instant feedback from synthesis to analysis and vice versa is installed. Analysing techniques migrate into the realm of synthesis.

University of Pennsylvania Stuart Weitzman School of Design. 27-29 October 2022. edited by M. Akbarzadeh, D. Aviv, H. Jamelle, and R. Stuart-Smith. 182-195.
summary	This paper presents a novel approach to spacesuit fabrication and functionality using CNC knitting to enable precise material control throughout the three-dimensional structure, creating higher functionality in a seamless and minimal textile architecture. We have developed a 3D textile framework consisting of a computational design workflow, multifunctional fiber integration, and a highly customizable 3D layering method that can be adapted to the personalized dimensions of the body. This method includes designating regions for mobility, tunable compression, integrated sensing, and quick donning and doffing within a single sleeve prototype as a first step toward a novel approach for spacesuit fabrication. While this work has focused on the spacesuit application, we imagine future applications in other textile architectures and next-generation apparel with integrated monitoring for increased performance, environmental regulation, and improved comfort.

summary	The strength of general-purpose fabrication tools is in the ease of repeatability and reconfiguration of geometry. However, there are some material processes that are difficult to directly integrate into fabrication processes with these machines. In particular, the common methods of material configuration through horizontal deposition in 3D printing exclude other types of material processes such as casting. This project demonstrates an additive manufacturing technique paired with a design input process for generating a wall of customized cast bricks. Taking advantage of the precision and adaptability of a robotic arm, the fabrication process pairs this general-purpose tool with a specialized auxiliary device to create variation in concrete casts.

summary	Virtual domains in digital fabrication such as simulation and digital visualization often prioritize values such as geometric accuracy and precision. Simulation methods are evaluated by comparing physical and virtual objects, measuring discrepancies in toler- ance and geometric form. However, the ability of simulation to inform the design process extends to intuitive decision-making and exploratory iteration, independent of geometric fidelity. This paper explores the role of simulation through the lens of textile fabrication, which is uniquely resistant to accurate geometric characterization, but offers clear opportunities to consider the role of simulation in the design process. The research outlined in this paper establishes a new design workflow that incorporates material prop- erties, stitch structure, and varied knitted architecture to create a powerful new way to design and fabricate textiles.

summary	In this paper we outline a new workflow for textiles customization through the design and fabrication of knit shape-changing masks that contain multi-material fibers to create programmable transformation. We have created a process for producing standardized and scalable textile goods using a flatbed industrial CNC knitting machine which are then "tailored" to an individual's body measurements through a system of programmable textiles, custom multi-material fiber, and robotic heat activation. Hybridizing the efficiency of standardized textile production with unique geometric variation, the proposed strategy centers on the shape-change behavior of fibers and precise knit structures to produce personalized textiles. This work focuses on the face mask as an example of a now-ubiquitous textile good that is often ill fitting and yet can now be highly tailored to an individual’s personal fit and comfort. This paper outlines the materials, knit fabric development, mask design, digital workflow, and fabrication steps for producing truly customized masks for an individual's unique facial geometry.

title	Developing Feedback Based Robotic Manufacturing Method for Earth-Based Materials

summary	Although earth-based materials have the advantage of being locally sourced and have low embodied emissions, they can have an unpredictable material behavior due to their heterogeneous composition which potentially limits their use in manufacturing. As a result, it becomes challenging to standardise and maintain quality outcomes. Moreover, current industry methods are labour-intensive and require a high level of traditional knowledge. This research explores and develops a fabrication methodology for earthen materials that is location-agnostic. It involves an array of fabrication approaches, including the development of a robotic 'Impact Printing' setup using a UR10 robot and a custom tool to pick, place, and mechanically compact earth blocks. The 'Feedback System' employs Kinect 2.0 to scan the deformation of earth materials observed during fabrication and a computational algorithm to generate accurate and adapted toolpaths for the position and compaction of earthen blocks in real-time. To push the boundaries of architectural design for traditional building materials, the study investigates the construction of a closed Nubian vault using the aforementioned techniques and tools. Through the optimization of material behavior and manufacturing processes, the research opens up a pathway for automated onsite earth construction.

summary	Design current fetching constantly for products that satisfy the necessities increasing of the human being, conceives new products looking for to take care of the expectations of the users, of satisfactory, constant form that it is possible to connect in any place. It is possible still to create educative games that assist in the assimilation of new knowledge of trustworthy and constant form. The objective of this article is to raise the hypothesis of fetching constantly for products that motivate and satisfy the necessities increasing of the human being, conceives new products looking for to take care of the expectations of the satisfactory form. From this premise it is possible still to create educative games that assist in the assimilation of new knowledge of trustworthy and constant form from the satisfaction and motivation. However, the games have gained recognition as a half greater of what its original conception. The Games had entered in the context of the learning in areas as language, mathematics, science, computers, training, among others, with this development and ampler acceptance, the pure functions and right of games are gaining adoption expanded in applications non-game.

title	A Heuristic Method for Land-Use Plan Generation in Planning Support Systems

summary	Existing land-use allocation methods assume that the suitability of a spatial distribution of land-uses can be measured as the sum of suitability scores across parcels. Although this may be plausible for some land-uses, facilities such as retailing, schools, medical services, etc., intend to serve the needs of a local population and should be evaluated at the level of a facility network, instead. The purpose of the present paper is to develop a method that combines a suitable heuristic for facility-location planning with an existing mechanism for land-use allocation, to solve this shortcoming of existing models. In specific, the proposed method combines the interchange heuristic for locating facilities and a swapping heuristic for area-type land-use allocation in a multi-agent framework. A case study shows that the method generates plausible land-use plans in reasonable computation time.

title	Generative Systems Based on Animation Tools: Shaping Alternatives to Structure and Form in Architectural Design
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2007.245
source	Predicting the Future [25th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 978-0-9541183-6-5] Frankfurt am Main (Germany) 26-29 September 2007, pp. 245-251
summary	Our system is based on computer animation tools, employed in the context of architectural synthesis. The pipeline of the tool consists of “time” and space design constraints of boundaries / objects affecting a given architectural design, with an output of alternative designs. The alternative designs vary from the original according to their temporal and/or spatial distance from the original object on the animation time-line. Specific tools [shape driven curves, speed and time-line functions,parent child relationships, boolean operations, arrays, lattices etc.] empower the designer with the ability to transform his original idea in almost every way the designer likes in a completely visual, interactive and straightforward manner. The solutions sets change according to time, speed, location, configuration of the objects and/or the constraints and rules the designer/user configures. Previous work on our tool stemmed from the rule based structure of shape grammars, but has evolved to a tool where the designer does not have to define a rule set beforehand but does so as his idea evolves during design. The animation tools used are form independent (that is the designer can use any two- or- three-dimensional form) and can represent structural decisions in a given design. The independence from form makes the tool suitable for almost every kind of architectural design, be it experimental, real or conventional while the ability to represent structural decisions and relations of parts in a design implicitly help the designer/user acquire a clear picture of each design and solution set. Finally the possibility of a structured graph representing each solution is discussed, where the designer can evaluate the merit of an individual solution in terms of conforming to the initial core idea or where alternative spatial configurations evolve in a different structure from the original design.

title	Mouse.class: Experiments for Exploring Dynamic Behaviors in Urban Places
source	University of Washington, Design Machine Group
summary	Urban space comprises not only physical forms - buildings, streets, plazas, trees, etc. – but also the people 'acting on them'. The purpose of this thesis is to increase our awareness of behavior and environment relationships, focusing on local movement at the individual level in a pedestrian environment. The thesis describes the experiment Mouse.class, as a concept demonstration model, which allows users to create a 2D-virtual environment for accommodating autonomous agents, Mouse, to explore (pedestrian) dynamic behavior in relation to (urban) space. The program uses multi-agent technology to construct an individual-based simulation in which each agent employs individual behaviors. The agents have abilities to navigate through the environment using a behavior rule set derived from a wide range of research – both theoretical and empirical approaches – on spatial behavior in small-scale urban space. These simulated individuals also have the ability to improvise their actions according to the situations they find themselves in. In the simulation, each agent reacts to the space configuration, to specific attractions in the environment, as well as to other mice. The local movement of an individual is, therefore, the result of the interaction of its visual perception, motivation, and social actions. The program then tracks each movement – path of use – revealing patterns that emerge from interactions among the components of the environment. The exploration seeks to develop a way urban designers think of 'space' as fluid processes and recognize that objects in the urban environment can have radically differing effects, depending on the circumstances and contexts in which they exist. Indeed, people are parts of the environment.

summary	Buildings account for 40% of the worldwide CO2 emissions. These emissions are directly related to their energy consumption. 80% of the design decisions impacting energy consumption are made during the first 20 % of the design process and therefore address the architect. Necessary decisions do not only concern building geometry but also materialization and building service systems. Choices in either of these fields significantly influence the future energy consumption of the building. Therefore it is necessary to support the architects’ decision-making. From the first sketch on, the evaluation of energy performance needs to be incorporated into the design process. This paper shows a method and results which where produced in a case study at the ETH Zurich by using a special tool in early design phases for energy and exergy analyses.

title	A Better Understanding of The Role of Endoscopy as a Tool in Architecture
source	Endoscopy as a Tool in Architecture [Proceedings of the 1st European Architectural Endoscopy Association Conference / ISBN 951-722-069-3] Tampere (Finland), 25-28 August 1993, pp. 123-128
summary	As the most tool-dependent species on our planet, our technology determines our activities and thus defines our existence. Because of this a clear understanding of the ends-means relationship of our tools is of critical social- and professional-concern. Endoscopy, or the use of periscopic-like devices to extract human eye-level visual images, static or dynamic, from iconic scale models of proposed environments, is a case in point. Use is appropriate at advanced stages of planning and design, when such experiential simulations are necessary for both professional evaluation and lay approval. But note that the simulation is only a means to an end, and that the fundamental purpose is to evoke a response to a proposal. Simulation and response are opposite sides of the same coin, and the response is the goal. Any such responses are meaningful only with reference to the ultimate users’ experiential preferences, preferably explicitly established as ”performance specifications” before the start of the design process in consultation with a representative sample of these people. This implies the necessity of a means to identify these beneficiaries of our work, and a means to characterize their environmental ”experiential profiles”. It also requires a means for the discursive scripting of their experiential preferences. The development of a design oriented to the achievement of these ends then depends on a similar time-based scoring for the description of sequentially-experienced environmental attributes, hypothesized as related to these responses. Endoscopy then takes its place as the means for a penultimate check on the experiential design-hypotheses, in conjunction with suitable means to record the simulates’ responses in the same format as the original experiential performance specifications, for comparison therewith. The danger in being the most tool-dependent species on Earth is that in our necessary concern with technological means we may loose sight of our ultimate human ends; as suggested by the apothegm ”the operation was a success, but the patient died”. Our inexorable impetus toward technological development means that the specialized training that is inherent in professional education tends to separate and distance the perceptions of those so conditioned from those of the many others who are the presumed beneficiaries of their efforts.

title	Are theories of imagery theories of imagination? An active perception approach to conscious mental content
source	Cognitive Science 23(2): 207-245
summary	Can theories of mental imagery, conscious mental contents, developed within cognitive science throw light on the obscure (but culturally very significant) concept of imagination? Three extant views of mental imagery are considered: quasi-pictorial, description, and perceptual activity theories. The first two face serious theoretical and empirical difficulties. The third is (for historically contingent reasons) little known, theoretically underdeveloped, and empirically untried, but has real explanatory potential. It rejects the "traditional" symbolic computational view of mental contents, but is compatible with recent and approaches in robotics. This theory is developed and elucidated. Three related key aspects of imagination (non-discursiveness, creativity, and ) raise difficulties for the other theories. Perceptual activity theory presents imagery as non-discursive and relates it closely to . It is thus well placed to be the basis for a general theory of imagination and its role in creative thought.

summary	Oberhausen/Germany is said to be the birth place of the Ruhr industry. At present we can witness a unique structural change in the history of this city. Well into the sixties still an internationally renowned industrial location for coal and steel Oberhausen shall, according to the plans of local and regional governments, be developed into a center of service industries of top European niveau within the next three years. This development was and is the logical consequence of its salient position in the nexus of important European traffic routes. If one includes nearby Holland which is situated to the northwest Oberhausen can draw on the resources of a substantial market area. Attractive services provided, it can and shall be developed into an international center of attraction for more than 13 million people within a travel time radius of only 60 minutes. In its present borders, the town comprises the communities of Sterkrade, Osterfeld and old Oberhausen which had been independent up to 1929. On their joint boundaries a competitive metropolis of coal related and heavy industry developed, and that particularly after the Second World War. Oberhausen had excellent connections on water, rail and road with all the supraregional transportation networks. The continuous economic power of the settlement area could, apparently, not be questioned. At the beginning of the sixties Oberhausen was hit the harder by the downfall of this seemingly safe economic branch. Up to 1992 almost 40 000 jobs were lost in the city. Within 30 years Oberhausen lost everything it had gained in the years since its foundation. In the heart of the city a huge industrial wasteland was left.

title	Implementation of Endoscopic Model Simulation in Teaching - Downtown-Essen
source	The Future of Endoscopy [Proceedings of the 2nd European Architectural Endoscopy Association Conference / ISBN 3-85437-114-4
summary	Essen with its present population of 630.000 is amongst the six largest cities of the Federal Republic of Germany. Its international significance as former industrial capital of Central Europe stems from its strategically unique location in the center of the largest economic conurbation within Continental Europe. Comparable to the transition during the industrialization period the Ruhr-metropolis, once having been a production site, has become a service-industry site. At present Essen is to be regarded as one of the major trade emporiums in the center of Europe: fair city, headquarters of major international industry- and trade corporations, principal energy center, shopping- and university city. In line with these favorable prerequisites the main traffic corridors, - on the rail, road, water and in the air - of Conti-nental Europe also meet in and around Essen. And the location of the Essen Central Train Station at the geographic center of the Ruhr-agglomeration proves also ideal Its potential regarding urban functionality, however, shows a drastic incongruity as far as aesthetic-atmospheric reality is concerned. Instead of representing a meeting point and the focus for the integration of city quarters in terms of visitors communication it has become cut off from is surroundings in the south and north by large traffic routes. Down-town Essen has become unattractive for the public and thus is avoided rather than visited. An improvement of the Essen down-town area will only be effective if this incongruity is done away with. Therefore, the five-storey system train station is to be connected to the down-town and southern part of Essen on the three major levels level with the vicinity in such a manner that the requirements of its service-function as to representing a point of attraction, animating center and efficient connector are met. Our conception is aimed at turning the Central Train Station into an interesting welcoming- and farewell-place enticing dwelling and appealing business activities: the gateway of Essen and into the world.

title	What makes a city ‘smart’?
source	International Journal of Architectural Computing vol. 14 - no. 4, 358-371
summary	Taking advantage of information and communications technology tools and techniques for city administration, whether it is for urban planning activities, for transport solutions or many other purposes, is not a new concept. However, in order for a city to be classified as ‘smart’, a synthesis of intelligence that transcends mere utilisation is essential. This article analyses the increasing use of information and communications technology and sensing technologies in cities by examining this new way of city governing from a critical perspective. Existing projects and initiatives were investigated to find out how, and to what extent, these tools are being employed by cities. The advantages and the current shortcomings of smart city are also discussed in order to understand the viability of using these tools.

However in order to a city to be classified as “smart”, a synthesis of intelligence that transcends mere utilization is essential. As part of an ongoing research, this paper analysed the increasing use of ICT and sensing technologies in cities by examining this new way of city governing in a critical perspective. Existing projects and initiatives were investigated to find out to what extend and how these tools are being employed by cities. The advantages and the current shortcomings of real-time city also discussed in order to understand viability of using these tools.

summary	This paper seeks to further the state-of-the-art knowledge on what a smart city is; by analysing the smart cities across the world. It also seeks to find out how different approaches to the smart city creation influence the city. This worked based on the ongoing review on Smart Cities that was started in 2014. In particular, it is structured as follows. First, definition of "smart city" are reviewed, next typologies of smart cities were generated by analysing the different types of smart cities across the world. Following this, case studies are reported. Case studies are followed by a reflection. Paper drawn to conclusion following this section by giving research directions to take this research further.
