Teaching-Learning-Research: Design and Environments
TEACHING-LEARNING-RESEARCH: DESIGN AND ENVIRONMENTS • Paper / Proposal Title: Innovation in research & education pedagogies: the Transitional Territories Studio three years’ experience on the North Sea • Author(s) Name: Luisa Maria Calabrese, Taneha Kuzniecow Bacchin • University or Company Affiliation: Delft University of Technology, Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment, Department of Urbanism, Section of Urban Design • Abstract (300 words): This paper presents the educational approach embedded in research developed within the framework of the Transitional Territories graduation Studio at the Delft University of Technology, Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment. Transitional Territories is a cross-domain research and design studio working on the notion of territory as a constructed project across scales, subjects and media. In particular, the studio focuses on the agency of design in territories at risk between land and water (maritime, riverine, delta landscapes), and the dialectical - or inseparable - relation between nature and culture. At the core of the Delta Urbanism Research Group (Section of Urban Design), the studio is embedded within/and supported by the interdisciplinary TU Delft Delta Futures Lab, working in close collaboration with the Faculties of Civil Engineering and Geosciences and Technology, Policy and Management (TUD). Delta Urbanism is an interdisciplinary research program at the Delft University of Technology, which investigates the possibilities to combine flood protection, soil and water -

One of the most significant reasons for increased traffic jams on the road is random parking in unauthorized and non-permitted places. In addition, managing of available parking places cannot achieve the expected reduction in traffic congestion related problems due to mismanagement, lack of real-time parking guidance to the drivers, and general ignorance. As the number of roads, highways and related resources has not increased significantly, a rising need for a smart, dynamic and effective parking solution is observed. Accordingly, with the use of multiple sensors, appropriate communication network and advanced processing capabilities of edge and cloud computing, a smart parking system can help manage parking effectively and make it easier for the vehicle owners. In this paper, we propose a multi-layer architecture for smart parking system consisting of multi-parametric parking slot sensor nodes, latest long-range low-power wireless communication technology and Edge-Cloud computation. -

Christine Murray, Editor of Architects’ Journal, commented: “I’m delighted to announce this year's shortlist, which includes the women behind the celebrated Library of Birmingham, the new Stonehenge development and the Giant's Causeway visitor centre. The awards celebrate design excellence and leadership -- qualities needed to succeed as an architect -- and especially among women, who are under-represented in the construction industry.” 2014 Woman Architect of the Year Shortlist: 1.
