title	Machine Learning-Based Walkability Modeling in Urban Life Circle
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2022.1.645

summary	With China's fast urbanization, the study of the walkability of residents' life circles has become critical to improve people's quality of life. Traditional walkability calculations are based on Lawrence Frank's theory. However, the weighted calculation method cannot be adapted to ever-changing and complicated scenarios as the scope and topic of research transforming. This study investigated walkability at the community level by combining machine learning techniques with multi-source data. Feature indicators affecting walkability were estimated from multi-source data. Machine learning was used to refine the weighting calculation under the previous indicator framework. We compared the performance of 20 regression models from 6 different machine learning algorithms for estimating the walkability of 14578 communities in downtown Shanghai. It is concluded that the Bagged Tree Model (R2=0.86, RMSE=0.36862) achieves the best performance, which is used to revise the initial walkability index values. The workflow proposed in this paper allows for rapid application of expert empirical consensus to comprehensive urban design and detailed urban governance in the future.

title	Computer-Mediated Cooperative Spatial Planning
source	Timmermans, Harry (Ed.), Third Design and Decision Support Systems in Architecture and Urban Planning - Part two: Urban Planning Proceedings (Spa, Belgium), August 18-21, 1996
summary	Decision making on spatial planning problems has to integrate recent advancements on geographical information systems with a framework that supports fair, rational and efficient decision making procedures. Such a framework will assist government and businesses with the retrieval, use and reuse of information in cooperative, distributed planning procedures requiring access to spatial data. This paper gives an overview of a computer-mediated group decision support system for the World Wide Web, namely ZENO. The target is to provide intelligent assistance to human mediators and other kinds cf "trusted third parties" during the above procedures. The role of the system is to remain neutral and help assure that the interests and goals of all members of a group, regardless of their status, are respected and appreciated. In this paper, the system's features are illustrated with a retrospective model of a real urban planning example, concerning the allocation of a new technology park in the area of the city of Bonn, where more than eighty communities, local and federal authorities, and other organizations have been requested to submit their suggestions, objections and comments on a spatial planning problem.

title	From symbol to form: a framework for conceptual design
source	Computer-Aided Design, Vol. 28 (11) (1996) pp. 853-870
summary	This paper presents the design of a software framework for conceptual design. It develops an approach to mapping an evolving symbolic description of design into a geometric description. The distinct elements ofthe symbol-form mapping are: (a) deriving spatial relationships between objects as a consequence of the functional relationship; (b) instantiating alternative feasible solutions subject to these relationships; and (c)presenting the evolving descriptions of geometry. Computational support for each of these elements is provided within a conceptual design framework. The paper presents components of the framework, explicitlyidentifies interactions between these components, and explains how these interactions are developed into an integrated framework. It presents the rationale for the design decisions made in the framework. Anexample is presented to clarify the approach adopted. The applicability of the approach is then discussed.

title	Hackitecture: Open Source Ecology in Architecture
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.2013.183
source	ACADIA 13: Adaptive Architecture [Proceedings of the 33rd Annual Conference of the Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) ISBN 978-1-926724-22-5] Cambridge 24-26 October, 2013), pp. 183-190
summary	This paper discusses the changing modes of conception, production and consumption of architecture within the larger open source discourse. Analogies are drawn from the field of computer science to conceptually understand the relevance of ideas like hacktivism, crowdsourcing, open source, social media and user-centric approaches with regard to architecture in the twenty-first century. These ideas are discussed in relationship with the long lineage of research carried out within the architectural community regarding user participation in design. Contemporary interpretation of similar ideas is discussed with relation to how they could be systematically classified based on the nature of the “open” and the “source” as an approach toward design and architecture. Hybridizing these approaches leads to what can be termed as “hackitecture,” a systemic appropriation of the hacker culture and the open source movement as an architectural agency. The essay then argues for an open source framework for architecture where obvious differences between the user and designer are dissolved, and wherein the conception-to-production and eventual conception of the architectural “object” exists as a continuum. Such a framework is discussed with respect to the technological shift emerging within the discipline. The essay concludes with the possibility of situating such processes within the larger post-capitalist sociopolitical turmoil seen today while discussing the problematics of such an approach.

summary	This project was an investigation into the application of Urban Information Systems [UIS] based on 3-Dimensional computer models. The research centred on a collaboration between the Architecture and Buildings Aids Computer Unit, Strathclyde [ABACUS] and the Edinburgh Old Town Renewal Trust [EOTRT] to develop a detailed computer model of Edinburgh's old town. The area of particular interest is the development of an interface to a database of property related information. This provides a means of analysing the multi-layered and multi-dimensional spatial data which is characteristic of urban environments. The research also investigated how, by using multi media technology as a data integration tool , urban models could be used to improve decision making in the framework of urban management.

title	Fostering Collective Creativity in Architectural Education

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. 639–646
summary	This paper presents a comprehensive exploration of the pedagogical implications and methods of integrating collaborative objects into architectural education and computer-aided architectural design. Over the past five years, our approach to education in design studios has embraced the concept of collaborative objects - digital objects augmented with networking capabilities. This conceptual framework allows for various forms of interaction and contribution to the design: from synchronous to asynchronous to distributed design activities. This has various consequences, both formal, as several people contribute to the creation of an architectural form, and informal, as the real time design process becomes a very social, human-centered, and community-driven activity - creating a wide variety of open, participatory architectures. Throughout multiple design studios, students engaged in hands-on projects, navigating the technical aspects of computational design as well as the intricacies of teamwork and collective creativity. This approach not only enhanced their understanding of digital architecture but also fostered a rich environment for collaborative learning and creativity. Our approach combined theoretical underpinnings with hands-on applications, ensuring a balanced educational experience. This paper reports on the key methods and concepts, their implications, and how they evolved over this period of extensive research by design on collective creativity in architectural education.

title	Automated Semantic SWOT Analysis for City Planning Targets: Data-driven Solar Energy Potential Evaluations for Building Plots in Singapore
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2022.1.555
source	Jeroen van Ameijde, Nicole Gardner, Kyung Hoon Hyun, Dan Luo, Urvi Sheth (eds.), POST-CARBON - Proceedings of the 27th CAADRIA Conference, Sydney, 9-15 April 2022, pp. 555-564
summary	Singapore‚s urban planning and management is cross-domain in nature and need to be assessed using multi-domain indicators ‚ such as SDGs. However, urban planning processes are often confronted with data interoperability issues. In this paper, we demonstrate how a Semantic Web Technology-based approach combined with a SWOT analysis framework can be used to develop an architecture for automated multi-domain evaluations of SDG-related planning targets. This paper describes an automated process of storing heterogeneous data in a semantic data store, deriving planning metrics and integrating a SWOT framework for the multi-domain evaluation of on-site solar energy potential across plots in Singapore. Our goal is to form the basis for a more comprehensive planning support tool that is based on a reciprocal relationship between innovations in SWT and a versatile SWOT framework. The presented approach has many potential applications beyond the presented energy potential evaluation.

source	AVOCAAD Second International Conference [AVOCAAD Conference Proceedings / ISBN 90-76101-02-07] Brussels (Belgium) 8-10 April 1999, pp. 25-33
summary	Viewing computer aided design in the context of the history of tools and media in architectural design reminds us that tools have consequences on the way of working. Design involves seeing, reasoning, and drawing in an iterative and interactive process. These three activities provide a framework for addressing the question of 'added value' in architectural design. A number of recent projects at the Sundance Lab illustrate how computer aided design can support these various activities.

source	Proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / Hong Kong 7-10 April 2010, pp. 249-258
summary	This paper presents a formal framework for utilising different digital design and rapid prototyping technologies in design education. The framework has been applied in a studio created for a mixed cohort of tertiary students from architecture and industrial design. A comprehensive survey was conducted at the end of the course as a means for evaluation, and for student self-reflection. This paper reports the experiences in conducting the studio and the student perceptions of their design processes and outcomes whilst confronting these tools. The paper provides insight into the application of digital design and rapid prototyping tools in design education, supported by a qualitative analysis of the survey result.

summary	A select review of making in design in an epistemological framework presents two dominant approaches and a less practiced third approach. Whereas the first two value the control and accuracy in the processing of information, the third values the uncertainties in the processing of materials. Whereas the first two rely on final product and prior knowledge, the third relies on the processes of formation and flows of matter, and thus is key to a dynamic and sustainable model for design.

summary	This paper addresses the use of BIM for code verification and automatic validation of the Airports Design (AD). In Brazil, the evaluation and approval of AD are carried out by INFRAERO. Currently, designs are evaluated manually, resulting in errors and long evaluation time. To deal with this problem, a conceptual framework for automated AD assessment with Code Checking is proposed. The method used was Design Science Research, with the proposal of an artifact. The partial results show man-machine interaction as a way more efficient to evaluate the airport design process in Brazil. This man-machine interaction its leads to a mixed model evaluation, with the use of Code Checking for the less complex stages of evaluation and leaving the man responsible for evaluating those more complex, subjective and difficult to implement rules.

source	International Journal of Architectural Computing 2024, Vol. 22 - no. 1, 1-17
summary	Robotic Clay Printing (RCP) offers opportunities in sustainable architectural applications. This paper presents a framework to integrate locally sourced earth-based materials with robotic fabrication techniques while enhancing designer’s control over the process. The methodology involves two key steps: first, refining critical 3DP (3DP) control parameters to develop an informed toolpath algorithm. This algorithm grants designers’ direct control over factors like layer height and extrusion speed, enabling customization and ensuring structural integrity. Second, the framework is applied to design and RCP of an interlocking modular wall component system. Evaluation encompasses the impact of 3DP control parameters, informed toolpath planning, RCP performance, and assembly possibilities

summary	Healthcare design practice has shown increasing interest in the assessment of design alternatives from a human-centered approach, focusing on organizational performance, patient health, and wellness outcomes, in addition to building performance. The goal of this research is to advance building analytics by identifying, defining and implementing computational human-centered design metrics. The knowledge is extracted from an exhaustive literature review in the field of evidence-based design (EBD), which has studied the associations between building features and the occupants’ outcomes but has not yet consolidated the findings into metrics and implications for design practice in a systematic manner. In consultation with industry experts, we have prioritized the evaluation aspects and developed a weighted evaluation framework for assessment of various design options. The developed metrics that input building parameters and output potential health and performance outcomes are implemented in a a parametric environment utilizing add-ons accordingly, and using an ambulatory clinic designed by Perkins&Will as a case study.

summary	Apart from being an integral part of the architectural design process, modelling is becoming central to architecture as well as to neighbouring fields. The technologies and tools applicable for the generation, development and coordination of models are growing rapidly. In one single project, a wide range of models is used which poses challenges in practice in terms of establishing a systematic way to utilise those modelling techniques and access their potential benefits. Aiming to enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of the various modelling methods, this paper establishes a framework for the different types of models where the models are categorised and evaluated based on different criteria. To achieve this, a critical review of the literature related to the history of modelling in architecture and the emergence of the different methods of modelling is conducted. Beyond classical, CAD-based 3D models, the framework identifies four categories of modelling methods: performative modelling, algorithmic modelling, parametric modelling, and BIM. Each category is evaluated based on the generation and modification process, model entity and model function. Subsequently, the paradigm shifts associated with each modelling method are identified and discussed.

title	A Conceptual Framework for Communication -Instruction in Architectural Design
source	Pennsylvania State University
summary	Existing design models, it is generally acknowledged, are inadequate to deal with the complexity of contemporary situations; and an assessment of self-conscious design manifests a slow development in the power and scope of conceptualizing. The quality of knowledge and conceptual tools available to the designer largely determine his ability to conceive and accomplish; conversely, the limitations of method are reflected in design solutions. Some emerging social problem-solving paradigms, which seek to construct a cognitive psychology of problem solving, have a direct relevance to architectural design. Notwithstanding the traditional criticism and scepticism, problem solving is predicated by task environment and problem space as these have a significant impact on design synthesis. Despite a rigorous search for theoretical perspectives and methods, the concern for the quality of the physical environment persists unabated. Historically, architecture has depended on other disciplines for its theoretical insight; but the application of borrowed theories without a viable framework for translation has often resulted in misinterpretation. Aggravating the problem is the art-science controversy which has consequences for architectural practice and education. What is required is a unified approach encompassing the scientific and artistic modes of inquiry. But a unified perspective, involving vast and disparate areas of human knowledge, demands a conceptual framework for integrative learning. The proposed model of this study provides such a framework and calls for a re-examination of the conventional boundaries of design disciplines. It advocates an interdisciplinary approach and recognizes the design process as inherently a learning process; this shifts the emphasis from product to process and allows students to plan and assess their own design/learning experience. While the study focuses on substantive issues, it identifies a strategy for integrative learning applicable within the existing context of design education. Despite its untested nature, the proposed model can become a vehicle for stimulating coordination of all facets of human knowledge and experience toward creative design synthesis. It inculcates a sense of critical assessment of generative ideas by presenting a conceptually clearer picture of the design process to elicit a response to and a better understanding of the task environment of architecture.

title	Digital Statement and 3D Modeling for the Restitution of the Architectural Heritage: 3D virtual model for architectural restoration
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. 149-160
summary	Heritage specialists (architect, historian, conservator, engineer, archaeologist, etc.) often face significant problems of representation and simulation assumptions restitution of monuments. The traditional graphic means cannot fulfill all the needs which are done day in the patrimonial restitution. That is why it is necessary to consider the services that digital technology can do, and think about their use in the representation of monuments in their environment. It can also be used to restore and to preserve heritage using digital statement which allows reconstituting numerically damaged parts or disappeared from historic buildings. The virtual model of restitution constitutes a solution which makes it possible to show the restitution of the site (or part of the site) without materializing it physically, using graphical means. The virtual restitution can be materialized in the form of digital restitution in 3D, but also by the use of drawings or others graphic techniques. In this paper, we present two techniques for digital statement: The Photomodelling and 3D laser scanning, which are used in the field of modeling heritage. Then we present case studies which were carried out within the framework of our teaching activities and research at the School of Architecture of Paris La Villette (ENSAPLV).

summary	Waning of vigorous discourses about the idea of space as essence in architectural design concurred with the emergence of digital architecture. The notion of space was replaced with the underlying notion of form facilitating optimization of performances and form-generation in digital design ever since. Within the context of digital architecture, the current research investigates a formal method to reintroduce spatial aspects, based on dynamics of architectural space in relation to form, into digital design processes. Accordingly, a computational framework is devised employing the idea of space as dynamic field conditions, in order to capture dynamic interrelation of architectural space with architectural form. That is, spatial dynamics are regarded as data embedded in architectural space, that can imply operational aspects of spatial experiences and / or stimulate corporeal engagements with experiential space, as concepts as action potentials and affordances do (Rasmussen 1964). As a result, the research aims to contribute to the body of knowledge that endeavour to systematize architectural sensibilities that are implicit in design processes by externalization utilizing computation.

title	Can IT bridge the Gulf between Science and Architecture?

summary	The integration of technology into design work has always been seen as one of the serious problems in design education. In architecture the weak integration between architectural science, a subject based on objective knowledge, and artistic design which is based on tacit knowledge and creativity is a problem that has been debated to great length, and an issue of great importance to both academics and professionals. This paper raises the question: can a proper use of IT, both as a design tool and/or as a performance analysis tool, foster better integration and strengthen design quality? This paper investigates the relationship between Science, Design and Computer Aided Design. It aims to both highlight the problems facing the integration between architectural science and design, and describe a framework within which they can be analysed. The paper critically examines the following: a) The perceived gulf between science and design b) The parallels between hypothesis in design and hypothesis in science c) The basis of architectural design: intuition or research? d) Architectural Science and Computer Aided Design (CAD) and the role they can play into bringing about a marriage between science and design.The paper concludes by developing a conceptual framework that can be used as a vehicle to build a CAD system for use during the design process.
