A collection of architectural principles is developed that support Army’s Simulation and Modeling for Acquisition, Requirements and Training (SMART) initiative.

Many Internet architectural research initiatives have been undertaken over last twenty years. None of them actually reached their intended goal: the evolution of the Internet architecture is still driven by its protocols not by genuine architectural evolutions. As this approach becomes the main limiting factor of Internet growth and application deployment, this paper proposes an alternative res...

ArchieTutor is an experiment ill combining case-based and multimedia technologies to support tile teaching of architectural design. It provides all architectural student with access to a library of past design cases, and enables the student to retrieve and browse through cases that are similar to a given design problem. Tile cases are annotated with design lessons learned from thenl. In additio...

The paper describes the architectural principles of a database CASE tool that allows more flexible design strategies than those of traditional tools that propose oversimplistic draw-and-generate approaches. Providing this flexibility is based on four basic principles, namely a unique generic specification model that allows the definition of a large variety of specific design products, transform...

This paper presents an approach to address the problem of image façade labelling. In the architectural literature, domain knowledge is usually expressed geometrically in the final design, so façade labelling should on the one hand conform to visual evidence, and on the other hand to the architectural principles – how individual assets (e.g. doors, windows) interact with each other to form a faç...
