title	Automated detection of surface defects in water and sewer pipes
source	Automation in Construction 8 (5) (1999) pp. 581-588
summary	Automation is gaining momentum in industry, particularly in rehabilitation and inspection works of underground infrastructure facilities. This paper describes a model for automating inspection and identification of surface defects in underground water and sewer pipes. The paper describes the current efforts in identification of surface defects in underground water and sewer mains, and presents an automated system designed to assist infrastructure engineers in diagnosing defects in this class of pipe networks. It describes the general architecture of the system and its basic components, and focuses primarily on four modules designed for automating image acquisition, image processing, features extraction and classification of defects.

title	Spatial Representation in Product Modelling
source	Proceedings of the IEEE International Conference on Information Visualisation, IV 2001, London, UK
summary	An unambiguous definition of space is necessary before any attempt made to develop product or process models for concurrent engineering in the AEC Industry. The ambiguity is the result of different and even conflicting approach to its definition in the various phases of the building life cycle for different stakeholders, e.g. Architects, Engineers, and Building Services Engineer etc. Some researchers consider space as an abstract property of things, while others consider as a thing itself. Regardless of the definition, the space can be referred to as a collector of material objects and also as an object itself. This paper investigates the existing concepts & criteria of definition in various phases, compares with the factual and ontological meaning, and specifies conceptual schemas for representation of space, geometry, and buildings.

title	Towards Interoperability: ICT in Academic Curricula for Sustainable Construction
source	Proceedings CIB W107 Conference: Creating a sustainable construction industry in developing countries, South Africa
summary	Sustainability has been regarded as a key issue in both process and product development in industries, e.g., manufacturing, production. The construction industry has recently recognized the importance of sustainable processes in achieving overall sustainability. Demands for cheaper, faster and better products coupled with the globalisation of the economic markets are forcing the construction industry to move towards an integrated business process. In order to achieve this integration, information and knowledge sharing are considered vital to reduce waste of resources hence fostering sustainability. Integration of process and information in a diversified, multi-disciplinary workforce like construction depends mostly on the individual’s level of expertise. Efforts at producing interoperable information standards by a growing number of alliances changing the information flow from horizontal to vertical and from sequential to cyclic. This implies that the actors in the industry must be proficient with the current and emerging Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Recent surveys show that, there is a widening gap between required ICT skill in the workplace and those taught in academic institutions. This paper establishes the need for ICT in construction education emphasizing interoperability as a concept among processes to achieve sustainability.

title	Prototyping: A Politics of Memory
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. 80-85
summary	This paper presents a view on the architectural prototype as an exteriorisation of human memory. Bernard Stiegler describes the politics of memory involved in the process of hypomnesis, in which memory is stored in technology. Stiegler’s ideas with relation to the prototype were developed while working on a research prototype. Four modes of exteriorisation have been extracted from that process: the use of memory aids, the prototype as stepping stone for thought, the digitisation of fabrication, and the prototype used for communication. This analysis provides a pathway for making expert knowledge available and accessible as a common good.

summary	This paper discusses the aesthetical motivations which would lead the appropriation of the photographic image by the differents imagetic creation, without considering the base’s nature. The study looks at the regard’s idiosyncrasies, the photographic image nature and its aesthetic apreension as a photopoetic reality. This would establish the creator from differents imagetic poetics would lead the appropriation of the photograhic. The theoretical basis of this study is Bachelard’s Phenomenology of the creative imagination and poetic image.

title	The poetic of sight: eye-driven landscapes
source	SIGraDi 2005 - [Proceedings of the 9th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Lima - Peru 21-24 november 2005, vol. 2, pp. 575-579
summary	This paper is based on the phenomenological approach of the imagination and poetic image of the philosopher Gaston Bachelard (1957, 1960), through a discussion of the role played by imaginary impulse in the comprehension and representation of urban nature. Our aim is to explore the epistemological potential of a poetic interpretation of eye-driven landscapes by an ontology of sight. We will do so by exploring two topopoetics themes given by Bachelard`s phenomenology, such as a blue sky deepness e o movement of intimate immensity, from which Win Wenders`s cinematic urban spaces will be analyzed. We believe the poetic contemplation of film framing would be a way from where the city and its eye-driven landscapes would meet their full human destiny. [Full paper in Portuguese]

title	Computer Based Learning for Architecture Students; A Methodology for Evaluating the Teaching and Learning
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.1996.287
source	Education for Practice [14th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 0-9523687-2-2] Lund (Sweden) 12-14 September 1996, pp. 287-292
summary	The paper describes a methodology applied to the production, and evaluation of a computer based teaching package. In producing multimedia materials for teaching or for presentation, too much emphasis is sometimes given to the beauty of the images while not enough thought is given to the structure of the material. Is the student or "viewer" led through all the most important information? Can the use of computer based learning improve the quality of the teaching and learning experience? These issues are addressed, using as an example the production and testing of a package designed to complement a course on History of Scottish Architecture intended for senior students and especially to emphasise the Scottish context for exchange students. The package describes Linlithgow Palace in Scotland, showing how the contemporary political links between the Scotland and Italy were influential in the development of Renaissance architecture in Scotland.

title	The Teaching of Knowledge Management Systems in Architecture: a Domain Oriented Approach
source	SIGraDi’2000 - Construindo (n)o espacio digital (constructing the digital Space) [4th SIGRADI Conference Proceedings / ISBN 85-88027-02-X] Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) 25-28 september 2000, pp. 350-351
summary	The teaching of artificial intelligence techniques in architecture has generally adopted a computer science oriented approach. However, most of these teaching experiment have failed to raise enthusiasm on the students or long term interest in the subject. It is argued in this paper that the main cause for this failure is due to the approach adopted. A different approach, that is, an domain oriented one will then be described as a promising teaching strategy.

title	LA INDUSTRIA DE LA CONSTRUCCION COMO CADENA DE VALOR (The Construction Industry in the Value Chain)
source	SIGraDi biobio2001 - [Proceedings of the 5th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics / ISBN 956-7813-12-4] Concepcion (Chile) 21-23 november 2001, pp. 288-290
summary	In the ever-changing “new economy”, buildings are among the few capital goods that are actually left. The Construction Industry drives a very high level of resources, marking the paths of the economy. It is, however, a non-integrated process, with few or none sinergies and with a relatively ambiguous relationship with technology. Moreover, we architects have limited ourselves the role we play, concentrating more in representation than in the work as a whole. The proposal wants to conceive our work as a long-term Strategic Alliance between several actors around the building: Customers / Manufacturers / Vendors / Architects / Specialty Engineers / Builders / Contractors / Managers / Supporters / Users, and so on We are facing a historic opportunity to clarify the relationship of our Industry with technology, allowing it to gain its true dimension on this century. Besides, this will re-define the role of the architect in the Industry: we will evolve from designers, project-oriented, to be creators, owners and managers of “Virtual Buildings” that manage, coordinate and give value to the building as an integrated process, and co-exist with it along its lifecycle.

title	Building Knowledge-Based Systems : The PSN Experience
source	IEEE Computer. IEEE Computer Society, October, 1983. vol. 16: pp. 83-88. includes bibliography
summary	Knowledge-representation languages have been classified traditionally as declarative or procedural, depending on whether their basic features come from mathematical logic or data structures on one hand, or from programming languages on the other hand. Procedural representation languages are particularly well suited for heuristic knowledge, and their use can lead to efficient searching on the part of an expert system. Many attempts have been made to integrate features of declarative and procedural representation languages. PSN is one attempt that focuses on the integration of semantic network and procedural notions

summary	The architecture is crossing in a period of big changes; nevertheless the teaching of the architecture is not travelling these ways, on the contrary, remain in an inaltered reality teaching as the teachers were formed for decades. This article recounts to the introduction inside a regular course workshop of project, of a practical work realized in a module of a magister course in order to exploit and to develop the creative possibilities of the students when the digital means use as a creative tool to answer to the new demands.

source	SIGraDi 2004 - [Proceedings of the 8th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Porte Alegre - Brasil 10-12 november 2004
summary	This research aims to develop a three-dimensional representation method for complex environmental systems based on the environmental impacts derived from actions or interactions amongst the elements of the studied systems and associated systems. It is a method for representing matrices in networks which contemplates the simulation of causes and effects and the visualization of interdependence links amongst the subsystems making them up and also amongst adjacent systems. The methodology includes the observation and study of an environmental system with the consequent formulation of a networked matrix and, finally, its modeling through a three-dimensional software. Both the elements and the interactions are represented as three-dimensional items with a shape, color, and size of their own. The practical result is a three-dimensional animation in which all the elements of the environmental system and their connections are represented.

title	Ontología de la Red (Ontology of the Network)
source	III Congreso Iberoamericano de Grafico Digital [SIGRADI Conference Proceedings] Montevideo (Uruguay) September 29th - October 1st 1999, pp. 63-67
summary	Internet was born as a new technologic support, difference from analogous supports that shaped century xx masses' culture. Fragmentation, multiplicity, multidirectionality structure form systems foundational essence. Metaphor generated by rational thought, produce a wrong speech in the collective imaginary. Network is a long way from industrial notion,' of motorway information, to concentration a diagram that warrants security in a speed detriment. Internet is not defined by speed and instantiating values. Security and compatibility in information translation are the values that determine its configuration. Networks system organization is based on a functioning's diagram that industrial philosophy rejected as thought alternative. The most powerful intercommunication network between computer does not answer to the postindustrial line dynamism. In fact, it's alike to the labyrinthine space where Teseo emerged victorious, defeating Minotauro.

source	SIGraDi 2006 - [Proceedings of the 10th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Santiago de Chile - Chile 21-23 November 2006, pp. 70-74
summary	This paper aims at examining some issues related to the conception of interfaces whose structures work at anchoring local based community networks. It points out that the countless variables that should be considered when structuring these interfaces connect offline collaborative activities, an aspect usually forgotten in this practice. It tries to denote and propose some theoretical tools which can be an aid in the task to bring offline collaborative activities near the constitution of virtual communities place based. This paper is regarded as part of researches which aim at building a wider theoretical understanding of the constitution of hybrid and virtual spaces, and also the implications of ICT Information and Communication Technologies in daily life, taking place at Nomads. usp Center for Interactive Studies - at the Department of Architeture and Urbanism of the Engeneering School of Sao Carlos, University of Sao Paulo.

summary	The Hybrid Territories project explored the construction of urban hybrid spatialities by means of cultural action using digital media with a two-way perspective: of someone who occupies and experiences these spaces, as well as of someone who is called to understand these spaces, for they should there intervene. A form of collective creation through the use of digital interfaces has thereby been established as an effective action of intervention in an urban space, of which new understandings emerge, and establish reflexive territories that may even reshape the practice of the architect and the urban planner.

source	SIGraDi 2005 - [Proceedings of the 9th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Lima - Peru 21-24 november 2005, vol. 1, pp. 75-79
summary	Contemporaneus art constructs its own space: interactive, multiple, eidetic, heterogenous, discontinuous and subjective: essence, forms and idea of a heterotopic at the same time atopic space, that arises at the moment of the intelligible apprehension of the work. This work sets out to study the construction codes of that space from the spectator point of view, for whom the history is the sum of histories narrated by the space, the scenery, stage scene, choreography, dances, hairdos, accessories, make-up, clothes, illumination, music, sounds, songs, word, performance, gestures etc., for which sets out the analysis from the perceived, analyzed and interpreted images by the spectator. It will be exemplified from the Dogville film, of Lars Von Traer (2004), using the qualitative research method, where the speaker meaning is introduced: the creator intentionality of those spaces, but is inescapable who arises the “interpretation” from the observer.
