Urbanism Beyond Cognition: On Design and Machine Learning
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference Paper)It could be argued that the introduction of new technologies always shifts the 'epistemological horizon' of the different fields they impact. New instruments allow expanding the range of parameters defining a discipline's ... -
Fundamentals of Robotic Fabrication in Architecture: Multi Materiality, Multiscale Resolution and Multimode Production
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference Paper)This paper discusses the recent advancement in architectural materialization processes. The focus is on design to robotic production systems through which the realization of more efficient building processes and building ... -
Using the fractal dimension to generate parametric Islamic patterns
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference Paper)Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the cause for over 70% of global deaths. Various levels of healthcare delivery from home-care to tertiary care exist for patients where patients with NCDs are treated. Demand for services ... -
Shared Models and Open Infrastructures for the smart City Internet of Things based on the Semantic Web
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference Paper)Contemporary cities face many challenges: energy, ecological, demographic or economic. To answer this, technological means are implemented in cities through the use of sensors and actuators. These cities are said to be ... -
Design as semiosis: A design mechanism for place branding
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference Paper)The described design methodology combines parametric design, data analysis, algorithmic design and semiotics theory to systematically analyze urban reality. The analysis leads to a creation of a nebula of data which ... -
Adaptive architecture, an implementation with game theory. Emotional input and pneumatically driven actuator
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2021 , Conference Paper)In the active context of adaptive architecture, this proposal tackles the field of Human Building Interaction. Indeed, material would no longer be inert but activated by the users, programmable and equipped with memory. ...
