The purpose of this study is to review representative cases of green space development in order to compare the Garden City concept and Green Belt concept as applied and to examine its direction in major Asian and Oceanic cities. The results of previous studies and this study show that there are two major directions in such green-oriented city planning. One direction is toward Multi-Regional Dev...

ZGARBOVÁ, M.: Fundamental phenomenological categories of garden and landscape. Acta univ. agric. et silvic. Mendel. Brun., 2012, LX, No. 8, pp. 299–306 The current scientifi c methods describing gardens and landscapes all over the world are not always suffi cient for the purpose of deep understanding of specifi c and close relations between landscape/ garden and its inhabitants/visitors. A new ...

Gardens represent important sources of goods and services for their owners. This functionality translates directly into the types of plants cultivated in a given garden, and terminology has been developed to distinguish each category of garden according to its purpose. The factors explaining the differentiation and distribution of gardens have not previously been explored at the global scale. I...

We show new results about the garden-hose model. Our main results include improved lower bounds based on non-deterministic communication complexity (leading to the previously unknown Θ(n) bounds for Inner Product mod 2 and Disjointness), as well as an O(n · log n) upper bound for the Distributed Majority function (previously conjectured to have quadratic complexity). We show an efficient simula...

the pavilion can be outlined among the most important architectural identity elements in persian gardens. usually these structures were built in the middle of the garden and at the confluence of two longitudinal and transverse axes in such a way that it could be seen from four sides to maximize the geometrical composition of the persian four-garden. although relatively different reasons for the...

This paper describes a practical method of developing custom HPC software products using a store of libraries and tools independent from the OS called a "garden". All dependencies from the product to libraries of the underlying OS distribution are carefully severed, isolating the package from instability due to system upgrades and ensuring repeatable deterministic builds on different flavors of...

The Secret Garden is an interactive narrative potential space, which aims to be a hidden rest area in urban space and a site to interrogate and reflect on the human experience. A digital image of the tree with its ‘will’ to grow stands in the space. A spectator’s secret will feed the tree. JeeHee’s The Secret Garden installation suggests a cross-art form. Sound, light and visualisation will des...

BACKGROUND Childhood obesity is an epidemic. Strategies are needed to promote children's healthy habits related to diet and physical activity. School gardens have the potential to bolster children's physical activity and reduce time spent in sedentary activity; however little research has examined the effect of gardens on children's physical activity. This randomized controlled trial (RCT) exam...

Tranditional Chinese medicine (TCM) was successfully used in many cases of chronic disease treatment. The fungus garden of termite, a mixture of leaves, growing fungi, and secretion of termite, is often used for protection of the liver, and treatments for disorder diseases, Parkinson's disease (PD), and so on. However, the mechanism is unknown. To reveal the effective component, we applied the ...
