Digital Proceedings: Making CAAD-Knowledge Widely Available
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper deals with the efficiency of publication means within the scientific community. Scientists spend a substantial part of their total time in visiting meetings and conferences, reading publications, writing emails, etc. Thus any improvements in the communication processes, in particular technologies which minimize non-value adding activities such as tedious retrieving of source material from library shelves, could have far-reaching (positive) consequences. In this respect a customized solution for the digitalization of paper-based conference proceedings is presented. The process of creating electronic copies of papers disseminating knowledge on CAAD in pdf-format is described as well as the respective decisions which were taken in this context.

Integration of Digital Photogrammetry and Caad: Constraint-based Modelling and Semi-automatic Measurement
The integration of state-of-the-art photogrammetric methods with the capabilities of CAAD has great potential for a variety of architectural applications. This paper describes the current status of an ongoing research project which aims to develop an easy to use tool for the photogrammetric generation of accurate, reliable and well structured 3D CAAD models of architectural objects. The system ...
متن کاملON-TO-CAAD Speculations towards the Knowledge contained in the Corpus of CAAD
The work presented here discusses an ongoing research in constructing a knowledge representation system founded on CAAD document repositories and investigating the network of concepts constructed by CAAD research. The approach does not rely on conceptual models or theories about CAAD research, rather a formal semantics amenable to decidable reasoning on the corpus of research in CAAD. A web-bas...
متن کاملPredicting the Future from Past Experience A Reflection on the Fundamentals of CAAD
Tomorrow’s architectural practitioners seemingly need to gain an overview of, if not master, a wide range of computer aided architectural design applications, from image making to Building Information Modelling (BIM) to digital fabrication. However, we are sceptical whether there is wide recognition that there is value in a broader appreciation of the underlying principles that organize these a...
متن کاملA Locus for Knowledge-Based Systems in CAAD Education
This paper outlines a possible locus for knowledge-based systems in computer-aided architectural design education. It commences with a review of computer-aided architectural design and knowledge-based systems. It then proposes their use at various stages in CAAD education. Introduction There are a number of paradigms to consider in computer-aided architectural design education. We could think o...
متن کاملDesign through Information Filtering a search driven approach for developing a layperson's CAAD environment
We propose a CAAD environment for non-designers. It is a new way to enable effective user participation during the design process. This CAAD environment contains an encapsulation of design knowledge and utilises information filtering as an interface to the design knowledge. Two prototypes are implemented as testbeds. So far, our experience has suggested that the approach has a promising future.
