title	A BIM-based Framework for Assessing Architectural Competition Entries
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2014.2.473
source	Thompson, Emine Mine (ed.), Fusion - Proceedings of the 32nd eCAADe Conference - Volume 2, Department of Architecture and Built Environment, Faculty of Engineering and Environment, Newcastle upon Tyne, England, UK, 10-12 September 2014, pp. 473-483
summary	Architectural competitions have been traditionally used to select best design practices. The basis of assessment for competitions has typically involved non-technical concepts of quality, subjective and emotional appreciations of experiences, and inseparable accord of formal, functional, aesthetic and contextual values (Rönn, 2011), rather than clear-cut objective and precisely measured values as in the engineering domain (Nashed, 2005; Nelson, 2006). Criteria for judgment usually focus on design parti and clarity of concept, novelty of architectural approach, context compliance, spatial organization, functional adaptability, economical solutions, and design flexibility. The assessment process, although presumably comprehensive and involving multiple evaluation techniques and resources, may still overlook important technical issues that may be fundamentally significant to the exclusion or approval of a given entry. This paper introduces a framework for assessing architectural competition entries aided by concepts of building information modeling (BIM).

title	Designing the Window to Fit a Shading Device, A Reversed Method for Optimizing Energy Efficient Fenestration
source	Computer Aided Architectural Design Futures 2011 [Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Futures / ISBN 9782874561429] Liege (Belgium) 4-8 July 2011, pp. 383-399.
summary	Solar radiation passing through a window contributes significantly to cooling loads and energy consumption, especially in hot climates. Most CAAD tools handling energy efficient design help designers to define the optimal shading device to protect a window of a certain shape, usually a rectangle, but some parts of the rectangular window (such as lower corners) are typically difficult to protect. Usually the whole shading device becomes bigger to shade these corners, which over-shades the rest of the window, increasing artificial lighting and heating loads. It also increases the complexity, visual impact and cost of the shading device. Changing the shape of the window by cutting these corners may reduce the size of the shading device considerably, which opens way to a different –or even a reversed- approach: “Designing the window to fit a shading device instead of designing the shading device to fit the window!” This approach has several potential applications. The building form itself sometimes works implicitly as a shading device. For example, if the building plan shape is a U or L shape, some parts of the walls become shaded, the windows can be placed in these shaded parts, and the window shape can be designed to fit the shadow pattern caused by the building form, changes in the building profile gives similar chances to design windows that fit the shadow pattern. Conceptually, this approach makes energy efficiency a form giving attribute, helping to create innovative facades, while giving an energy efficient configuration for both window and its shading device. CAAD tools can help the designer adopt such an innovative approach, by proposing the window shape that suits an arbitrary shading device created by the designer or a building mass. This paper examines the validity of the approach and introduces the approach required for developing a software module that can be integrated with other CAAD tools such as the Ecotect software. This would enable the designers to use this approach. The method handles the complexity of time-dependent solar geometry and radiation intensity, the geometry of both the window and shading device, and the designers set of objectives, enabling the designer to define the required configuration of window and shading device.

title	Collaborative Design as an Experimental Multidisciplinary Approach to Develop Computer Aided Architectural Design (CAAD) Courses
source	Em‘body’ing Virtual Architecture: The Third International Conference of the Arab Society for Computer Aided Architectural Design (ASCAAD 2007), 28-30 November 2007, Alexandria, Egypt, pp. 399-414
summary	This study demonstrates an overview of the state of teaching Computer Aided Architectural Design (CAAD) in the Department of Architecture, Misr Academy for Engineering and Technology (MET). This course is basically designed to enable students to explore new ways of design using Computer Aided Architectural Design software. In hypothetical valuation analysis, the study examines the necessity of combining ICT with architectural courses’ teaching in a collaborative design manner. In this sense, it tackles an experimental multidisciplinary approach to develop CAAD courses. It focuses on the innovation of the course by the introduction of ICT both in the contents of the course and as a means of education. To attain its goals stated above, the paper discusses the differences between teaching CAAD by using standard software and teaching the principles of CAAD. It distinguishes four-interdisciplinary system of application for collaborative design in education: social systems, professional systems, educational systems, and innovative systems. This exploration is seldom backed up from a design methodological viewpoint. The conclusion shows how the developed CAAD course, when taught in combination with ICT and collaborative design approaches may result in favorable learning outcomes.

title	Multimedia Data Management
source	New York: McGraw-Hill
summary	Here is the authoritative handbook on multimedia metadata and data management. In one volume, it gathers a wealth of information from the field's leading international experts in this emerging specialty. Multimedia data-text, image, voice, and video-poses unique challenges to product developers and database professionals in midsized to giant organizations. They need to know how multimedia can be effectively stored, accessed, and integrated into applications. The key is "metadata," which acts as an umbrella for multimedia data and allows it to be modeled and managed. In this invaluable guide, well-known contributors from the U.S., Japan, and Europe examine the metadata concept, present relevant standards, and discuss its global use in video databases, speech documents, satellite and medical imaging, and other applications.

summary	In the era of The Second Digital Turn, designers and engineers have easy and equal access to computational tools across the globe. With the highest development of technology at a global level, design development to construction process is locally contextualised in different parts of the world based on the available technology and resources. The paper presents a craft-based approach to computation and its contribution to support artisans' development in India. It is demonstrated through ongoing research on customising bricks and utilization of computationally generated asymmetrical Catalan vault. The challenge of constructing the computationally generated form by architecture students is completed by the craftsmen and students of crafts school. The research elucidates gaps at various levels. Craft based solutions bridging these gaps establish a methodology which makes complex geometry constructible in present-day India when access to digital fabrication methods are still evolving and expensive.

title	Preliminary Concept Design (PCD) Tools for Laboratory Buildings, Automated Design Optimization and Assessment Embedded in Building Information Modeling (BIM) Tools.
source	Computer Aided Architectural Design Futures 2011 [Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Futures / ISBN 9782874561429] Liege (Belgium) 4-8 July 2011, pp. 451-476.
summary	The design of laboratory buildings entails the implementation of a variety of design constraints such as building codes; design guidelines and technical requirements. The application of these requires from designers the derivation of data not explicitly available at early stages of design, at the same time there is no precise methodology to control the consistency, and accuracy of their application. Many of these constraints deal with providing secure environmental conditions for the activities inside laboratories and their repercussions both for the building occupants and population in general, these constraints mandate a strict control over the building‚Äôs Mechanical Equipment (MEP), in particular the Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system. Due to the importance of these laboratory designers are expected to assess their designs not only according spatial relationships, but also design variables such as HVAC efficiency, air pressure hierarchies, operational costs, and the possible implications of their design decisions in the biological safety of the facility. At this point in time, there are no practical methods for making these assessments, without having constant interaction with HVAC specialists. The assessment of laboratory design variables, particularly those technical in nature, such as dimensioning of ducts or energy consumption are usually performed at late stages of design. They are performed by domain experts using data manually extracted from design information, with the addition of domain specific knowledge, the evaluation is done mostly through manual calculations or building simulations. In traditional practices most expert evaluations are performed once the architectural design have been completed, the turn around of the evaluation might take hours or days depending on the methods used by the engineer, therefore reducing the possibility for design alternatives evaluation. The results of these evaluations will give clues about sizing of the HVAC equipment, and might generate the need for design reformulations, causing higher development costs and time delays. Several efforts in the development of computational tools for automated design evaluation such as wheel chair accessibility (Han, Law, Latombe, Kunz, 2002) security and circulation (Eastman, 2009), and construction codes (ww.Corenet.gov.sg) have demonstrated the capabilities of rule or parameter based building assessment; several computer applications capable of supporting HVAC engineers in system designing for late concept or design development exist, but little has been done to assess the capabilities of computer applications to support laboratory design during architectural Preliminary Concept Design(PCD) (Trcka, Hensen, 2010). Developments in CAD technologies such as Building Information Modeling (BIM) have opened doors to formal explorations in generative design using rule based or parametric modeling [7]. BIM represents buildings as a collection of objects with their own geometry, attributes, and relations. BIM also allows for the definition of objects parametrically including their relation to other model objects. BIM has enabled the development of automated rule based building evaluation (Eastman, 2009). Most of contemporary BIM applications contemplate in their default user interfaces access to design constraints and object attribute manipulations. Some even allow for the application of rules over these. Such capabilities make BIM viable platforms for automation of design data derivation and for the implementation of generative based design assessment. In this paper we analyze the possibilities provided by contemporary BIM for implementing generative based design assessment in laboratory buildings. In this schema, domain specific knowledge is embedded in to the BIM system as to make explicit design metrics that can help designers and engineers to assess the performance of design alternatives. The implementation of generative design assessments during PCD can help designers and engineers to identify design issues early in the process, reducing the number of revisions and reconfigurations in later stages of design. And generally improving design performance.

title	Automated Generative Design in Archaeological Reconstruction of Greek Architecture: Utilizing parallel shape grammars in Shape Machine
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2024.2.209
source	Kontovourkis, O, Phocas, MC and Wurzer, G (eds.), Data-Driven Intelligence - Proceedings of the 42nd Conference on Education and Research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe (eCAADe 2024), Nicosia, 11-13 September 2024, Volume 2, pp. 209–218
summary	The reconstruction of historical architectural structures presents significant challenges due to a lack of historical information and the complexities of classical architecture. Traditional reconstruction techniques frequently fall short of capturing the variability and complexities inherent in ancient designs. This study proposes a novel approach that combines parallel shape grammar and computer-aided design (CAD) using the Shape Machine, an advanced shape grammar interpreter. Taking the Ionic Porch at the Sanctuary of the Great Gods in Samothrace as a case study, this method suggests variations of elevations and plans for buildings using limited archaeological evidence, architectural data, and Vitruvian principles of classical design to create shape grammars for the Ionic Porch. These grammars capture this Hellenistic monument's architectural details and are integrated into the Shape Machine for precise manipulation. Besides automating architectural plans and elevations, our method includes visual scripting to document the reconstruction process. This helps us understand the Ionic Porch's architecture and follows the London Charter's principles of technical accuracy, historical authenticity, and archaeological integrity in reconstruction.

title	Prediction and Optimisation of the Typical Airport Terminal Corridor Façade Shading Using Integrated Machine Learning and Evolutionary Algorithms
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2023.1.059
source	Immanuel Koh, Dagmar Reinhardt, Mohammed Makki, Mona Khakhar, Nic Bao (eds.), HUMAN-CENTRIC - Proceedings of the 28th CAADRIA Conference, Ahmedabad, 18-24 March 2023, pp. 59–68
summary	For airport terminal buildings, the use of large glass curtain walls is beneficial to introduce daylight, but it also tends to cause excessive partial illumination, uncomfortable glare, and an increase in energy load. An appropriate façade shading design is important to help improve indoor environment performance and comfort. In this research, integrated machine learning algorithms were used to train a total of 2187 data samples of louvre shading and film shading to build a performance prediction model for adjustable façade shading of the typical terminal corridor, enabling rapid simulation and optimisation. The results show that the optimisation objectives are more closely related to the adjustable shading components and their façade areas. Besides, the optimal solutions for film and louvre shading are more influenced by the energy and light environment indicators respectively. Different target weights have a different impact on the selection of preferred solutions. This research further enriches the parametric model library and provides a reference for future design decisions and performance evaluation of airport terminal façade shading.

summary	The construction process of large-scale spaces such as airport terminals is often carried out in several phases, so the environmental performance assessment and analysis of completed projects can provide effective reference information for new projects. On the other hand, the layout of large glass curtain walls and skylights in the check-in halls of terminals, while fully introducing natural light, also brings potential glare hazards, and therefore the influence of different design parameters on glare needs to be clarified. However, current research has not yet discussed in detail the prediction of glare performance of terminal buildings and its influencing factors. This study aims to develop a transfer learning strategy and a workflow for predicting glare performance in terminal buildings. The results have proved that the transfer learning strategy can help quickly predict the glare performance between projects with similar spatial characteristics with high accuracy, and the outcomes also help clarify the influencing factors of glare performance and provide designers or managers with support for performance prediction and optimization methods.

title	A Method for Real-Time Prediction of Indoor Natural Ventilation in Residential Buildings
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2024.1.009
source	Nicole Gardner, Christiane M. Herr, Likai Wang, Hirano Toshiki, Sumbul Ahmad Khan (eds.), ACCELERATED DESIGN - Proceedings of the 29th CAADRIA Conference, Singapore, 20-26 April 2024, Volume 1, pp. 9–18
summary	Against the backdrop of energy crises and climate change, performance-oriented architectural design is increasingly gaining attention. Early-stage assessment of natural ventilation performance is crucial for optimizing designs to enhance indoor environmental comfort and reduce building energy consumption. However, traditional numerical simulations are time-consuming, and existing data-driven surrogate models primarily focus on predicting partial indicators in indoor airflow or single-space airflow. Predicting the spatial distribution of airflow is more advantageous for addressing global issues in building layout design. This paper introduces a surrogate model based on Generative Adversarial Networks. We constructed a dataset of floor plans, with 80% of the data generated using parameterized methods and 20% sourced from real-world examples. We developed a 3D encoding method for the floor plans to facilitate machine understanding of spatial depth and structure. Finally, we conducted airflow simulations on the dataset, with the simulated results used to train the Pix2pix model. The results demonstrate that the Pix2pix model can predict indoor airflow distribution with high accuracy, requiring only 0.8 seconds. In the test set, the average values for MAPE, SSIM, and R2 are 2.6113%, 0.9798, and 0.9114, respectively. Our research can improve architectural design, enhance energy efficiency, and enhance residents' comfort, thereby contributing to the creation of healthier indoor environments.

doi	https://doi.org/https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-16-5983-6_13
source	Proceedings of the 2021 DigitalFUTURES The 3rd International Conference on Computational Design and Robotic Fabrication (CDRF 2021)
summary	Health environment is a key factor in public health. Since people’s health depends largely on their lifestyle, the built environment which supports a healthy living style is becoming more important. With the right urban planning decisions, it’s possible to encourage healthier living and save healthcare expenditures for the society. However, there is not yet a quantitative relationship established between urban planning decisions and the health status of the residents. With the abundance of data and computing resources, this research aims to explore this relationship with a machine learning method. The data source is from both the OpenStreetMap and American Center for Decease Control and Prevention (CDC). By modeling the Point of Interest data and the geographic distribution of health-related outcome, the research explores the key factors in urban planning that could influence the health status of the residents quantitatively. It informs how to create a built environment that supports health and opens up possibilities for other data-driven methods in this field.

title	Cultures of Internet: Virtual Spaces, Real Histories, Living Bodies
source	Sage, London
summary	The Internet is here but have we caught up with all its implications for culture and everyday life? This collection of original articles on the development of computer-mediated communications brings together many of the most accomplished writers on the Net and cyberspace. Cultures of Internet examines the arrival of e-mail and online discussion groups, and considers the prospect of an `online world' - a playground for virtual bodies in which identities are flexible, swappable and disconnected from real-world bodies. The book traces the rise of virtual conviviality and how it supplements the physical encounters between actors in public spaces that are abandoned to the homeless. The book is distinguished by a critical and social tone. For the first time, it presents systematic descriptions of the development of the Internet, its history in the military-industrial complex, the role of state policies leading, for example, to the creation of Minitel, and the building of information `superhighways'. It also explores the development of this technology as a commercialized leisure form and a forum for underground political organization and critique. Accessible and lively, the book draws in contributions from Europe, North America and developing countries. It will appeal to students of sociology, cultural studies and computer studies.

summary	This study focuses on developing three-dimensional solar panels, as an alternative to traditional flat Photovoltaic (PV) surfaces in Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV). We propose to increase the energy efficiency of buildings by using the entire envelope for energy production as well as by increasing the efficiency of solar energy output in orientations which were traditionally considered as non-ideal. The panels are constructed from Polycarbonate with integrated flexible photovoltaic film, solar paint or dye. The methodology included digital algorithm-based tools for achieving optimized variable three-dimensional surfaces according to local orientation and location, computational climatic simulations and comparative field tests. In addition, the structural, mechanical and thermal properties of the integration between flexible PV sheets and hard plastic curved panels were studied. Interim results demonstrate a potential improvement of 50-80% in energy production per building unit resulting from geometric variations per-se. The dependence of energy production by surface geometry was revealed and an optimized method for solar material distribution on the surface was proposed. A parametric digital tool for automatic generation of optimized three-dimensional panels was developed together with a database and material models of the optimized panels system.

title	Towards a collaborative planning system
source	Environment and Planning B, Volume 19, 1992, pp. 709-722
summary	This article begins by exploring the problem of combining the elements of group cognition, access to media, and access to tools into a holistic planning process. It then discusses a way in which technology can be used to help combine these activities by incorporating graphical interfaces, associative information structuring, and computer-supported collaborative work into a microcomputer-based Collaborative Planning System (CPS). Methods for the development of a CPS are proposed and two systems are explored as examples. It is concluded that increased access to relevant information, aided by the implementation of a CPS, can ultimately lead to greater communication amongst participants in a group planning situation. This will ultimately have a positive effect on the quality of plans and decisions.

title	The Visual Perception and Human Cognition of Urban Environments Using Semantic Scales
source	Digital Crafting [7th International Conference Proceedings of the Arab Society for Computer Aided Architectural Design (ASCAAD 2014 / ISBN 978-603-90142-5-6], Jeddah (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia), 31 March - 3 April 2014, pp. 361-374
summary	The purpose of this study was to examine visual perception and human cognition on the use of 3D models to support the proper essential means of urban design presentations. The perception and comprehension of spatial volumes was examined between these 3D visualizations as a means of presentations for urban design. The Semantic Environmental Description Scale was used to investigate the effectiveness of both static 3D conventional scale models and 3D digital modelling. By using the Semantic Environmental Scale, we can find the attributes which affects the visual perception between the users of traditional scale models and the 3D digital models. A survey was conducted to measure how the respondents describe an urban environment. There were two groups of users: The first group was only allowed to analyse the scale model and the other group was given the 3D digital animation model. This methodology allows us to identify these main factors or attributes which describes the laypersons perception between these visualization techniques. In this way, a quantitative way of predicting the overall assessment from these factors can be obtained, thus predicting the success of a specific visualization method and thereby evaluating these main factors that condition it.

summary	Visual simulation has always played a significant role in the development of environmental relation and design. Designers often compose their design into the image of surrounding environment and create still image to have a peek look at the finished product. This research intends to incorporate Robotics of Lego and camera-matching technology used in filming industry to achieve more vivid motion composition simulation through self-assembled hardware and script, in order to help designers observe the relationship of the design and the environment in a more efficient manner.

summary	This research investigated the object composition in Chernikhov's 101 Architectural Fantasies through computer-aided visualization, for the purpose of interpreting the relationships between architectural components. In contrast to traditional simulation analysis, this research applied photogrammetry to investigate the orthogonal and parallel ambiguity of 3D objects in 2D drawings by calculating the position of matching geometries. This test took Fantasy no. 38 and 32 as examples to confirm their spatial relationship. 60 architectural students were asked to conduct 3 tests. The algorithmic approach (photogrammetry calculation) was referenced by a cognitive approach (the perception survey) as a comparison base. Photogrammetry test proved that the relation between objects was usually oriented by personal spatial experiences that did control the deduction process of an observer. Perception survey showed that orthogonal assumption existed in the interpretation process of an object's position. It turned out that a testee would still consider two linear objects intersected in orthogonal angle within a tolerance of 15 degree or parallel position between 4 and -16 degree. The finding showed that the interpretation of paper architecture drawings not only was given by the author, but tended to be re-interpreted by an observer. The interpretation process, just like modeling and rendering process, should be a two-way process that facilitates a study oriented either from 2D images or 3D models.

title	Modelling wall finishes
source	Automation in Construction 6 (2) (1997) pp. 139-146
summary	The purpose of this paper is to present a method to apply finishes to walls to meet the different modelling requirements in a computer-aided environment for architectural design. The method is applicable to wall finishes which are directly applied. The method considers wall and finish as two architectural components, instead of one. Advantages and disadvantages of integrated and differentiated approaches are compared based on the definition of building components, the number of the combinative variety of walls and finishes, the possibility of design inspection, the availability of applications, the stages involved in design, the management of the database, the process regarding drawing production, and the working process of creating and joining new types of walls at the same location. Although both components are usually applied in an integrated manner in most applications, this paper concludes that the number of combinations may become so large that finish and wall have to be defined separately in order to provide flexibility in assigning different depths and applying various materials. An application method is illustrated.

summary	The purpose of this paper is to suggest and demonstrate how image interpolation, as a tool, can facilitate architectural illustration of design content and process. This study emphasizes a design-oriented image transition process that is distinguished by two types of morphing: process and source. A morp model is presented with components of input, function, output and constraints. Based on a model’s definition, a matrix is used to illustrate the relationship between the two source images by referring to origin, reference plan, configuration, time, etc. Morphing contents emphasizes changes of pixel, outline (2D or 3D), and order. Possible applications in architectural visual studies include morphology study, comparison building renovation before and after, dynamic adjustment, quantitative measurement, dynamic image simulation, and model and image combination.
