And it is anxious for the survey technique that doesn't need cost and time more. Then, we made an idea of the technique of precise 3D model creation by 2D pictures. However, the technique of performing the improvement in accuracy of convergent photographing and automatic acquisition of corresponding points was not established. Therefore, in this research, we try to obtain a semi-automation of corresponding points acquisition from initial corresponding points and the improvement in accuracy of convergent photographing. Moreover, we applied the research to the used house of Japanese real estate, and the applicable field was selected as the high needs of the residence of 3D model. And we developed the system that everyone could create Web / 3D model house by VRML easily without requiring expensive apparatuses or expertise.}, subject = {Architektur}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{JianpingDongpingZhiliang2004, author = {Jianping, Zhang and Dongping, Xiang and Zhiliang, Ma}, title = {A survey on application of information technologies in Chinese construction industry}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.171}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-1717}, year = {2004}, abstract = {The construction industry is a supportive industry in China. IT (information technolgy), including computer technology and communication technology, as a whole is regarded as the most important means to upgrade the construction industry so that research projects were organized by Chinese government to further the application of IT in the construction industry. This study originated from one of the projects and is aimed at grasping the general situation on the application of IT in the construction industry. A questionnaire was designed for the survey, which used stratified proportional sampling method, and was carried out under the help of a government agency. This study can not only provide sound foundation for the government to make relative policies, but also reveal references for the firms in construction industry to apply IT in their business.

In addition approaches to the flexible combination of different measuring techniques and geometric abstractions are described which are based upon geodetic computational adjustment.}, subject = {Architektur}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{O'BrienElMashaleh2004, author = {O'Brien, William and El-Mashaleh, Mohammad}, title = {An Empirical Study Relating Construction Firm Performance and IT Utilization}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.173}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-1739}, year = {2004}, abstract = {This paper examines the impact of information technology (IT) utilization on construction firm performance. Based on empirical data collected from 74 US construction firms, the analyses provide evidence that IT has a positive impact on overall firm performance, schedule performance, and cost performance. Firm performance is a composite score of several metrics of performance: schedule performance, cost performance, customer satisfaction, safety performance, and profit. No relationship is found between IT utilization and customer satisfaction, safety, or profit, although this may be due to limitations of the study given strong correlations between IT utilization and cost and schedule performnance. The empirical evidence of positive association between performance and IT use provided by this research is significant to both construction practice and research literature. This evidence should encourage firms to adopt and invest in IT tools.}, subject = {Architektur}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SariyildizSchwenck1997, author = {Sariyildiz, Sevil and Schwenck, M.}, title = {An Integrated Software Environment for the Architectural Design Process}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.444}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-4447}, year = {1997}, abstract = {The general motivation of this research is to develop software to support the handling of the increased complexity of architectural design. In this paper we describe a system providing general support during the whole process. Instead of only developing design tools we are also addressing the problem of the operating environment of these tools. We conclude that design tools have to be integrated in an open, modular, distributed, user friendly and efficient environment. Two major fields have to be addressed - the development of design tools and the realisation of an integrated system as their operation environment. We will briefly focus on the latter by discussing known technologies in the field of information technology and other design disciplines that can be used to realise such an environment. Regarding the first subject we have to state the need of a detailed tool specification. As a solution we suggest a strategy where the tool functions are specified on the basis of a transformation, where a hierarchical process model is mapped into specifications of different design tools realising appropriate support for all sub-processes of architectural design. Using this strategy the main steps to develop such a support system are: implementation of a framework as basis for the integrated design system decision whether the tool specification are already implemented in available tools in this case these tools can be integrated using known methods for tool coupling otherwise new design tools have to be developed according to the framework}, subject = {Architektur}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SolaMorales2000, author = {Sol{\`a}-Morales, Ignasi de}, title = {Architectonic heritage of theme park}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.1209}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-12093}, year = {2000}, abstract = {Wissenschaftliches Kolloquium vom 14. bis 16.

This is often achieved by experimental trials until reaching an acceptable result. Several rendering softwares (such as Radiance) allow an accurate computation of lighting for each point in a scene, but this is a long process and any modification requires the whole scene to be rendered again to get the result. The first guess is empirical, provided by experience of the operator and rarely submitted to scientific considerations. Our aim is to provide a tool for helping designers to achieve this work in the scope of global illumination. We consider the problem when some data are asked for : on one hand the mean lighting in some zones (for example on a desktop) and on the other hand some qualitative information about location of sources (spotlights on the ceiling, halogens on north wall,...). The system we are conceiving computes the number of light sources, their position and intensities, in order to obtain the lighting effects defined by the user. The algorithms that we use bind together radiosity computations with resolution of a system of constraints.}, subject = {Architektur}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Koenig, author = {K{\"o}nig, Reinhard}, title = {CPlan: An Open Source Library for Computational Analysis and Synthesis}, series = {33rd eCAADe Conference}, booktitle = {33rd eCAADe Conference}, editor = {Martens, Bob and Wurzer, G, Gabriel and Grasl, Tomas and Lorenz, Wolfgang and Schaffranek, Richard}, publisher = {Vienna University of Technology}, address = {Vienna}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.2503}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20160118-25037}, pages = {245 -- 250}, abstract = {Some caad packages offer additional support for the optimization of spatial configurations, but the possibilities for applying optimization are usually limited either by the complexity of the data model or by the constraints of the underlying caad system.

This collection is now combined in the presented open source library for computational planning synthesis, called CPlan.

It offers an extensible structure that allows to add new customized parts for various purposes.
