title	EMO-Space: A Computational Model for Interaction between Emotions and Space
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2024.3.401

summary	Architectural space can trigger emotion (Zumthor, 2006). Psychologists Mehrabian and Russell (1974) proposed PAD model, presenting eight emotions as a means for psychologists to self-assess the emotional conditions of human experience and to provide people with a way to conceptualize the impact of cognitive structure. The Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) combines with computer operations to decode and calculate different brain waves generated by human emotions, supporting the convenience and wisdom of human life. The integration of the PDA model and BCI technology will offer an understanding of the interactive relationships between space and emotion. The purpose of this research is to construct a computational model called EMO-Space, which can autonomously support space interaction through the understanding of human emotions. Based on the PAD model, the integration of BCI, the mechanism of emotional transformation, and the control of message transmission are explored. Subsequently, the computational model is proposed and simulated. EMO-Space will provide the basis for the intelligence of emotional space in the future, such as in elderly care and spatial healing.

summary	Idea association is an interactive behavior that will invoke different levels of linking interaction in the conceptual design stage. For understanding the mechanisms of the linking interaction, this research explores the phenomena of linking interactions within idea association during the conceptual design stage. Based on the mechanisms (representation, recall and communication) found from the phenomena, we integrate the mechanisms with the computational technologies (case-based reasoning and software agents). Finally, a preliminary computational mechanism of linking interaction for supporting idea association is proposed.

title	One Map Many Ideas : How Novice Designers Generate Conceptual Designs From An Idea Map
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2009.341
source	Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / Yunlin (Taiwan) 22-25 April 2009, pp. 341-350
summary	Brainstorming is a method for creative problem solving in the design studio learning. In brainstorming, linking ideas is regarded as searching design in design space which is constructed by a graph-like knowledge structure between participants’ knowledge. Idea Map provides the potential knowledge representation for representing such design space. This research conducts an experiment to understand how novice designers generate conceptual designs through an idea map. Finally, a preliminary computational mechanism for controlling an effective map size to develop conceptual designs is proposed.

title	Framework of Judgment System for Smart Home Assistant Utilizing Collective Intelligence Case-Based Reasoning
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2019.1.695
source	M. Haeusler, M. A. Schnabel, T. Fukuda (eds.), Intelligent & Informed - Proceedings of the 24th CAADRIA Conference - Volume 1, Victoria University of Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand, 15-18 April 2019, pp. 695-704
summary	This paper proposes a framework of judgment system for smart home assistant that utilizes Collective Intelligence Case Based Reasoning (CI-CBR). CBR is suitable for the smart home environment with its system adaptability to the changeful user scenarios. However, existing CBR solutions have shown relatively low accuracy in service recommendation. This research therefore aims at enhancing the accuracy by introducing collective intelligence into the recommendation system. Assuming that multiple agents will make better decision than single agent, we adopted a multi-agent approach to generate the most similar case, which represents the optimal recommendation from the case base. This paper describes how our system enables agents adopting different similarity measures come to an agreement about the most similar case by the means of majority voting in the judging process. Our framework of a collective judgment system demonstrates its potentials to improve recommendation accuracy, and further enhance the performance of existing smart home assistants.

title	CAD as an Interface for Integrated Collaborative Design
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.1994.x.w5h
source	The Virtual Studio [Proceedings of the 12th European Conference on Education in Computer Aided Architectural Design / ISBN 0-9523687-0-6] Glasgow (Scotland) 7-10 September 1994, p. 235
summary	In the traditional approach to building design, the designer (usually the architect) produces a design (often quite detailed)in blueprint before handing this to the next member of the design team (engineer) to superimpose the structure, services etc. Often this proves so impractical that the initial proposal has to be referred back to the architect for revision, and the process repeated - and this cycle may be repeated many times. Such routines arise in building design because designers find collaboration among themselves difficult to control, the task of design integration ultimately falling upon the construction manager or the contractor. This is the most common cause of problems arising during the execution of the project on site, causing a delays in the construction process, and building failures which might only be detected after occupancy. As a test-bed for addressing this problem, a system of coordinated files is proposed for use by design-students (with a working knowledge of AutoCAD) during a design project. The aim is to related data (CAD information) across all students working on the same project but developing different aspects. Participating students will be drawn from a range of design specialisms. Each member accessing the same information while developing different aspects (e.g. structure, services, and cost modelling). This goes beyond the conventional use of 'XREF' (cross-referenced drawings) and involves each member accessing and working with the same dataset - e.g. using different layers, co-ordination is easier and the data better integrated - there is thereby a reduction of the amount of repetition as the need to redraw information is eliminated. References or an initial data-set is set up by the tutor and available for reference at any stage of design project. The technological aspects to support collaborative work (and in particular the interaction process in design) is the main thrust of the undergraduate degree in Building Design Engineering at the University of Strathclyde.

summary	Throughout Europe there is a rapidly growing volume of initiatives towards integrating computer aids within all aspects of education. In architectural education, the support offered by these initiatives presents a double-edged sword. On the one hand it is gratifying to see the work of almost two decades of CAAD research bearing fruit and the concepts gaining recognition by the profession. On the other hand the resulting pressures on the few individuals with the necessary knowledge to implement the teaching will stretch many to breaking point. Where resources are so limited it is crucial to clarify the needs and objectives and, thereby, more effectively direct resources. These needs will change over time and, in the world of computers, the means are also changing rapidly as hardware and software improves. This paper therefore outlines a scenario which I believe is relevant at this point in time but the background is constantly changing and I offer no apologies for any shift in emphasis since my last presentation of this topic in 1983.

title	Using Computer Game to Develop Advanced AI
source	Computer, 34 (7), July pp. 70-75
summary	Although computer and video games have existed for fewer than 40 years, they are already serious business. Entertainment software, the entertainment industry's fastest growing segment, currently generates sales surpassing the film industry's gross revenues. Computer games have significantly affected personal computer sales, providing the initial application for CD-ROMs, driving advancements in graphics technology, and motivating the purchase of ever faster machines. Next-generation computer game consoles are extending this trend, with Sony and Toshiba spending $2 billion to develop the Playstation 2 and Microsoft planning to spend more than $500 million just to market its Xbox console [1]. These investments have paid off. In the past five years, the quality and complexity of computer games have advanced significantly. Computer graphics have shown the most noticeable improvement, with the number of polygons rendered in a scene increasing almost exponentially each year, significantly enhancing the games' realism. For example, the original Playstation, released in 1995, renders 300,000 polygons per second, while Sega's Dreamcast, released in 1999, renders 3 million polygons per second. The Playstation 2 sets the current standard, rendering 66 million polygons per second, while projections indicate the Xbox will render more than lOO million polygons per second. Thus, the images on today's $300 game consoles rival or surpass those available on the previous decade's $50,000 computers. The impact of these improvements is evident in the complexity and realism of the environments underlying today's games, from detailed indoor rooms and corridors to vast outdoor landscapes. These games populate the environments with both human and computer controlled characters, making them a rich laboratory for artificial intelligence research into developing intelligent and social autonomous agents. Indeed, computer games offer a fitting subject for serious academic study, undergraduate education, and graduate student and faculty research. Creating and efficiently rendering these environments touches on every topic in a computer science curriculum. The "Teaching Game Design " sidebar describes the benefits and challenges of developing computer game design courses, an increasingly popular field of study

title	CAD in Practice Profile: R.M. Kliment and Frances Halsband Architects
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.1999.015.2
source	ACADIA Quarterly, vol. 18, no. 1, pp. 15-18
summary	R.M. Kliment and Frances Halsband Architects (KHA) is a firm recognized—among many outstanding achievements— for designing award-winning computer science centers at major universities (e.g., Columbia, Dartmouth, Princeton). With that design experience, it is no surprise that the firm has adopted an aggressive stance towards its own use of information technology (IT). One indication of this proactive approach to technology is that KHA, with a total staff of 33, carries a full-time CAD/systems manager position, as contrasted with the A/E-firm industry-wide average of one such full-time equivalent staff position for every 40 total employees. In effect, the firm has set its investment in and commitment to the role of IT at a rate twenty percent higher than the industry average. Such above-average investment in IT is consistent with other high-profile design firms that have won the prestigious Firm Award of the American Institute of Architects. (1)

title	From atelier to e-telier: virtual design studios
source	Architectural Record
summary	The design studio, as physical place and pedagogical method, is the core of architectural education. Ateliers clustered around rue Napoleon in Paris defined the École des Beaux Arts. The Carnegie Endowment report on architectural education, published in 1996, identified a comparably central role for studios in schools today. From programs, schemes, and parti to desk crits, pin-ups, and charrettes-language and behavior learned in the studio establish the profession's cultural framework. Advances in CAD and visualization, combined with technologies to communicate images, data, and "live" action, now enable virtual dimensions of studio experience. Students no longer need gather at the same time and place to tackle the same design problem. Critics can comment over the network or by e-mail, and distinguished jurors can make virtual visits without being in the same room as the pin-up-if there is a pin-up (or a room). Virtual design studios (VDS) have the potential to favor collaboration over competition, diversify student experiences, and redistribute the intellectual resources of architectural education across geographic and socioeconomic divisions. The catch is predicting whether VDS will isolate students from a sense of place and materiality, or if it will provide future architects the tools to reconcile communication environments and physical space.

title	Digital Environments for Early Design: Form-Making versus Form-Finding
source	First International Conference on Critical Digital: What Matters(s)? - 18-19 April 2008, Harvard University Graduate School of Design, Cambridge (USA), pp. 235-242
summary	Design ideas, like scientific theories, are falsifiable hypotheses subject to testing and experimentation and—if need be—replacement by newer ideas or theories. Design ideas also are known through distributed cognition, in which a mental construct and an external representation complement each other. Representations may be categorized along the axes 2D-3D and Analog-Digital, plus a proposed third axis from Form-Making to Form-Finding. In Form-Making, the mental construct component (of distributed cognition) arises before the representation. In Form-Finding, representation arises before the mental construct. All media of representation have different affordances. Certain media and representations afford Form-Making more so than Form-Finding; and vice versa. Design educators, students and practitioners will benefit from conscious, systematic choice of media and methods that afford an appropriate range of Form-Making and Form-Finding behavior when proposing and testing design ideas.

title	Possibilities of applying the E-government management concept in Serbian cities
source	CORP 2003, Vienna University of Technology, 25.2.-28.2.2003 [Proceedings on CD-Rom]
summary	Recent urban transformations worldwide consequentially lead to the numerous environmental problems that have to be solved bycomplex structure of social interest groups which have to be included in that process. This demands initiated requisitioning andmodification of concepts and methodologies of planning and managing urban development. At this moment there are differentmodels used in world wide practice, but main bases of new methods and techniques are the same. Leaving the idea of possibility ofconstituting the universal urban planning model lead to very productive results in developing the disciplinary methodologies. Processof transformation of traditional comprehensive urban planning model to integrated procedural pluralistic model (based on sustainabledevelopment principles) is something that can be underlined as a main characteristic of disciplinary development. The questions ofdecision making mechanisms and plans implementation are put in axes of conceptual and methodological considerations. Urbanplanning loses the classic form of making the multi level comprehensive urban plans with exact spatial and time horizon. It means, ingeneral that planning and managing of urban development is aiming to be realistic, decentralized, strategic and problem oriented,arbitrary, not instructive, but understood as a efficient and effective process.Operational support to the this kind of approach are Decision Support IT tools, such as GIS - Geographical Information Systems orES -Expert Systems. Usability of IT tools is based on their capability to perform fast and complicated processing of spatial data andon their flexibility towards specific real problems which are to be solved. In order to use maximum of capabilities of these tools inpractice problem solving it is necessary to adjust their structure and usage to the: - actual conditions of socioeconomic of the contextin which urban development planning and management is performed, - practical demands that managing of urban development has tofore fill, - all participants in urban management process, - institutional mechanisms and procedures.

source	CAAD Futures 1997 [Conference Proceedings / ISBN 0-7923-4726-9] München (Germany), 4-6 August 1997, pp. 331-344
summary	The systematic use of reliable modeling data is believed to improve the building design quality. The key term here is "reliability". There is general agreement that reliability in the context of modeling- assisted CAAD depends on the accurate description of both contextual parameters (climate, site, etc.) and ~building features (geometric and non-geometric properties) as well as the validity of the underlying simulation algorithms. In this paper, we specifically address the importance of detailed contextual information and computational algorithms for the reliability of the daylight modeling results.

title	Interface Design for Building Performance Modeling: Information Representation and Transformation
source	Sixth International Conference on Computer-Aided Architectural Design Futures [ISBN 9971-62-423-0] Singapore, 24-26 September 1995, pp. 141-152
summary	Building design is an integrative endeavor encompassing a multi-variate agenda that deals simultaneously with issues of architectural elements, their attributes (geometry, material properties, etc.), contextual variables (e.g., the uncontrollable external environmental conditions), and building performance variables (e.g., the potentially controllable indoor environment in terms of thermal, acoustical, visual requirements). Ultimately, an important objective of design is to create built environments that are responsive to occupant needs and building performance requirements. This paper will suggest a framework for developing appropriate representations of the complexities involved in building performance simulation. This is based on studies of the communication requirements pertaining to the informational content involved in the design process, and the interfacial relationships between various analytical components as well as between the user and the system. The applicability and effectiveness of this theoretical framework is demonstrated using the example of a fully operational hygro-thermal analysis program (META-4) developed by the authors.

summary	A virtual environment is a place which requires context, content and actors to promote realism in the exploration process. With the advancement in technologies and computing power, the context of virtual environments could be sculpted in finely. Referencing movie and video games, it would not be difficult to draft the content. The only component being overlooked is the actor. In this paper, I will address the mechanism and challenges in the implementation of autonomous agents as actors in virtual environment so as to promote social sense and enliven the environment, hence enhancing realism in the exploration.

summary	Researches in smart space design have been focused on using ubiquitous computing technologies to provide the visions of future lives in physical spaces. However, most researches have less concern for the logical usability in creating smart spaces for the occupants. The study is interested in designing a smart space which is occupant-centric and situated-life-oriented based on ubiquitous computing technologies. A spatial system prototype with smart door, smart wall, and smart table is developed from a situated life pattern approach to support typical office life events. The design problems of integrating ubiquitous computing devices with physical spatial components are explored and discussed.
