Modern architecture has vital impact in Nigerian architecture even though there are somesocio-cultural and religious factors and elements of traditional architecture and use of traditional materials andprinciples of design that still exist. This paper will be discussing on how modern architecture failed in the aspectthe of conservation and restoration of palace buildings which are the focal poi...

With the exception of pure data-driven methods, reconstruction approaches for 3D building models from aerial point clouds often incorporate some level of model information to construct regularized and well-formed roof structures. In the proposed feature-driven approach, low-level roof features like ridge lines, gable and (half-) hip ends, intersecting ridge lines, dormers etc. are detected in a...

NVA waste is a common activity in practically all construction projects and can affect the performance of those as whole. In Cikarang, West Java, this also occurred PT “XYZ” Warehouse Building Project. The goal study was to ascertain how XYZ's warehouse project affected associated with Overproduction, Inventory, Defect, Motion, Transportation, Processing (Over processing), Waiting. study's find...

Introduction: Cleaner productions in textile industry is achieved by reducing water and chemicals’ consumption, saving energy, reducing production of air pollution and solid wastes, reducing toxicity and noise pollution through many solutions. The purpose of the present research was to apply Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats (SWOT) and Quality Systems Planning Matrix (QSPM) te...

This paper introduces a methodology for predicting warehouse’s reduced load while offering flexibility. Physics-based energy simulations are first performed to model flexibility events, which involve adjusting cooling setpoints with controlled temperature increases reduce the load. The warehouse building encompasses office and storage spaces, three scenarios implemented, i.e., exclusive area co...

Environmental problems caused by fossil fuel consumption, on the one hand, and the upcoming prospect of ending these fuels on the other, attracted much attention towards sustainable architecture. Traditional buildings can be seen as a sample of sustainability; as they have used strategies to cope with the environment, which have been developed over the years, providing users’ comfort cond...

A data warehouse architecture (DWA) has been developed for the purpose of integrating data from multiple heterogeneous, distributed, and autonomous external data sources (EDSs) as well as for providing means for advanced analysis of integrated data. The major components of this architecture include: an external data source (EDS) layer, and extraction-transformation-loading (ETL) layer, a data w...

Order-compactifications of totally ordered spaces were described by Blatter (J Approx Theory 13:56–65, 1975) and by Kent and Richmond (J Math Math Sci 11(4):683–694, 1988). Their results generalize a similar characterization of order-compactifications of linearly ordered spaces, obtained independently by Fedorčuk (Soviet Math Dokl 7:1011–1014, 1966; Sib Math J 10:124–132, 1969) and Kaufman (Col...

In this paper we explore the challenges surrounding searching effectively in problems with preferences. These problems are characterized by a relative abundance of goal states: at one extreme, if every goal is soft, every state is a goal state. We present techniques for planning in such search spaces, managing the sometimes-conflicting aims of intensifying search around states on the open list ...
