Inheritance and Innovative Application of Lingnan Traditional Architectural Culture in Architectural Design

Interpration of Traditional Architectural Applications

The cities, environments and buildings we live in have been the result of change since old times. In the course of time, together with the changes in the socio-culture and value judgments, all of the economic and technological changes have reflected into architecture. As a result, in the urban environment and architectural residences, the contemporary solutions have been provided. Yet, these so...

Exploiting Inheritance in Modeling Architectural Abstractions

Formal (mathematical) modeling of a specification provides an unambiguous representation that allows for rigorous analysis and reasoning over properties. Architecture descriptions define an abstract representation of a system component that is amenable to formal modeling. Using formal modeling within this context provides a basis for integrated system descriptions and analysis, as well as a bas...

From architectural requirements to architectural design

nature and its role in architectural design

nature and the attitude towards nature have been two fundamental concepts historically used in interpretation of world, science and arts resulting to various definitions during different periods of human thought.nature and the attitude towards nature have been two fundamental concepts historically used in interpretation of world, science and arts resulting to various definitions during differen...

Cooperation models in co - design : application to architectural design

This paper focuses on cooperation concepts necessary for managing concurrent engineering. It reports on a research work being done in a project which establishes a connection between computer sciences, architecture and telecommunications research. Simple electronic cooperation paradigms (also called generic cooperation bricks) are found by analysing the current usage of human cooperation in the...
