Conversely the resulting installations often place users in situations where they are confronted with entirely unnatural forms of interaction.

This paper presents a new method for calculating the design of roadway lighting.

This is positive because the economic use of energy resources is evidently a priority in the world today. In our study, an exhaustiv...
