To Ludwig Streit on his 70 th birthday with warm wishes Abstract A complex web of roads, walkways and public transport systems can hide areas of geographical isolation very difficult to analyze. Random walks are used to spot the structural details of urban fabric.

Morphological analysis of urban fabric is a relevant step in order to perform the analysis of urban dynamics and to simulate their evolutions. In this context, the objective of this paper is to test to test two relational data mining methods (Cardinalisation and Quantiles) to label urban blocks and to produce rules on their morphology. The objective is to automate the identification of urban fa...

Abstract Cities are exposed to transformations in their urban fabric over time as a result of renewal projects and new requirements. These can have negative consequences, especially for traditional cities. Traditional cities characterized by historical continuity the years, so these lead destruction some characteristics, such connectivity or hierarchy city. The characteristics ancient city lead...

UbiComp in the Urban Frontier captures a unique, synergistic moment – expanding urban populations, rapid adoption of Bluetooth mobile devices, tiny ad hoc sensor networks, and the widespread influence of wireless technologies across our growing urban landscapes. The United Nations recently reported that 48 percent of the world's population current lives in urban areas and that this number is ex...

Old urban reform usually reactivates the fabric in a new era of sustainable development. However, what remains former and how it interacts with one often inspires curiosity. How old residents adapt their lives to layout should be explored qualitatively quantitatively. This research aimed assess fabrics downtown area Keelung, Taiwan, by considering interactions between truncated layout, proporti...

isovist and visibility graph analysis tools are used to quantify and measure the quality of space, and despite their lack of maturity and evolution, they are considered to be the future of space analysis tools by researchers. this study was undertaken with the purpose of introducing the aforementioned tools for analyzing sanandaj’s urban areas. in this study, four different urban areas in sanan...

The compact, geometrically integrated city can and should replace suburban sprawl as the dominant development pattern in the future. This approach to urban planning and design is well established among proponents of the New Urbanist and Smart Growth movements. However, the more radical scenario I propose in this paper is that the compact city should also replace the high-rise, ultra-high-densit...
