In the construction of 3D site models, much more emphasis has been put on the creation of the 3D shapes than on their textures. Nevertheless, the overall visual impression will often depend more on these textures than on the precision of the underlying geometry. The paper proposes a hierarchical texture modeling and synthesis technique to simulate the intricate appearances of building materials...

A Web service is frequently defined as browser-less access to content on a Web site. The industry’s focus to date has been on providing easy-to-use low-level libraries, tools and technologies to enable the rapid construction of Web services. The problem of how to support the automatic integration of Web services into Web sites has received less attention. In this paper, we describe and show how...

The thesis focuses on evaluating and improving the transport efficiency of two types of logistics operations in the supply chain. One research area is the production of raw material in heavy construction operations, which takes place early in the construction supply chain. The production of raw material, specifically earthmoving operations, involves the moving and processing of the soil surface...

In built environment assured access to sun is important because of the quality of life and because of the energy benefits. We can find a great number of historical precedents of respecting this issue. In Slovenia traditional settlements of the Karst are a model example. In this paper we investigated the Karst settlement of Kobjeglava. We studied the disposition of buildings with respect to cool...
