Contemporary research in design studies confronts the rapid expansion of emerging high- tech trends. Correspondingly, an adapted research methodology is required to meet the needs of current circumstances. This paper articulates employment of a quantitative computational research methodology for design studies. The research framework, implementation and validations are expressed in details. Computational charrette test method and computational emulation reasoning and representation are incorporated in order to validate the discussed research methodology outputs. In summary, the developed research methodology is articulated in details to enable further exploitations in academic research and practices.

  • Open Design Education: Addressing Accountability in the Age of Computing Açık Tasarım Eğitimine Doğru: Hesaplama Ve Hesap Verebilme
    ARTICLE MEGARON 2020;15(3):343-349 DOI: 10.14744/MEGARON.2020.32650 Open Design Education: Addressing Accountability in the Age of Computing Açık Tasarım Eğitimine Doğru: Hesaplama ve Hesap Verebilme Desantila HYSA,1 Mine ÖZKAR2 ABSTRACT Attitudes complement knowledge and skills but are often overlooked as assessable competencies in higher education. In architectural design curriculum, attitudes are especially relevant in order to ensure the training of responsible designers. As humanistic and environ- mental approaches are increasingly at the forefront, the studio cultures of the schools seek to cultivate collaborative and participato- ry skills on individual creativity. The parallel acclaim of computational methods expounds the reasoning processes of design and new opportunities arise for open and liable cultures of design. However, the task of connecting these methods to a broader competency in design is still not fulfilled. This paper provides an interdisciplinary context for accountability as an attitude in design education and a conceptual framework for implementing and assessing it through computational methods. It argues that computation in early-design education, in the form of shape rules and devices of visual computing, is supportive in instilling reflective attitudes by promoting knowl- edge sharing with accountability among learners. Keywords: Collaborative design; computational design; ethics; first-year design education; reflective practice. ÖZ Yükseköğretimde öğrenim çıktıları olarak bilgi ve becerileri tamamlayan tutumlar,

  • Guide 2009 Revised Complete
    <add OECD logo> GUIDE TO MEASURING THE INFORMATION SOCIETY, 2009 1 FOREWORD The Working Party on Indicators for the Information Society (WPIIS) first discussed the Guide for Measuring the Information Society at its April 2005 meeting. A number of WPIIS delegates and others provided comments, both before and after the meeting. The Guide was first published at the end of 2005. It was prepared by Sheridan Roberts of the OECD with substantial input from a number of other contributors. This revision was also prepared by Sheridan Roberts (as a consultant to the OECD), again with the assistance of other contributors (see Acknowledgements for details). A draft was presented to the 2007 WPIIS meeting and delegates were invited to provide comments. Further changes were made during 2008 and 2009, mainly reflecting finalisation of the information economy product classifications (affecting Chapters 2 and 7, and Annex 1a). The Guide is published under the responsibility of the Secretary-General of the OECD. © Copyright OECD/OCDE, 2009 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS FOREWORD...................................................................................................................................................2 PREFACE .......................................................................................................................................................9 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION..................................................................................................................11 The information society, in statistical terms

Escalante Submitted to the Department of Mechanical Engineering on June 7, 2013 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering ABSTRACT Imperial Rome has left numerous legacies, the most well-known being its literature and monuments. Though many monuments, such as the Pantheon, are well-preserved, in cases where little physical evidence remains, historians can often use literary sources to inform reconstruction efforts. For more technical studies of Roman construction, technical literature is rare and the contemporary awareness of such literature even less known. When Vitruvius wrote De architectura,he did not intend for it to be a manual for instruction but rather a central source of general architectural knowledge. Directly aimed at architects, contractors, and other individuals involved in the design and construction of buildings, De architecturaprovides insight into contemporary technical knowledge.

  • A Mathematician's Lament
    A Mathematician’s Lament by Paul Lockhart musician wakes from a terrible nightmare. In his dream he finds himself in a society where A music education has been made mandatory. “We are helping our students become more competitive in an increasingly sound-filled world.” Educators, school systems, and the state are put in charge of this vital project. Studies are commissioned, committees are formed, and decisions are made— all without the advice or participation of a single working musician or composer. Since musicians are known to set down their ideas in the form of sheet music, these curious black dots and lines must constitute the “language of music.” It is imperative that students become fluent in this language if they are to attain any degree of musical competence; indeed, it would be ludicrous to expect a child to sing a song or play an instrument without having a thorough grounding in music notation and theory. Playing and listening to music, let alone composing an original piece, are considered very advanced topics and are generally put off until college, and more often graduate school. As for the primary and secondary schools, their mission is to train students to use this language— to jiggle symbols around according to a fixed set of rules: “Music class is where we take out our staff paper, our teacher puts some notes on the board, and we copy them or transpose them into a different key. We have to make sure to get the clefs and key signatures right, and our teacher is very picky about making sure we fill in our quarter-notes completely.

  • An Introduction to the Mandelbrot Set
    An introduction to the Mandelbrot set Bastian Fredriksson January 2015 1 Purpose and content The purpose of this paper is to introduce the reader to the very useful subject of fractals. We will focus on the Mandelbrot set and the related Julia sets. I will show some ways of visualising these sets and how to make a program that renders them. Finally, I will explain a key exchange algorithm based on what we have learnt. 2 Introduction The Mandelbrot set and the Julia sets are sets of points in the complex plane. Julia sets were first studied by the French mathematicians Pierre Fatou and Gaston Julia in the early 20th century. However, at this point in time there were no computers, and this made it practically impossible to study the structure of the set more closely, since large amount of computational power was needed. Their discoveries was left in the dark until 1961, when a Jewish-Polish math- ematician named Benoit Mandelbrot began his research at IBM. His task was to reduce the white noise that disturbed the transmission on telephony lines [3]. It seemed like the noise came in bursts, sometimes there were a lot of distur- bance, and sometimes there was no disturbance at all. Also, if you examined a period of time with a lot of noise-problems, you could still find periods without noise [4]. Could it be possible to come up with a model that explains when there is noise or not? Mandelbrot took a quite radical approach to the problem at hand, and chose to visualise the data.

  • Does Mathematical Beauty Pose Problems for Naturalism?1
    Does Mathematical Beauty Pose Problems for Naturalism?1 Russell W. Howell Professor of Mathematics Westmont College, Santa Barbara, CA [email protected] Numerous events occurred in 1960 whose eects could hardly have been predicted at the time: several African Americans staged a sit-in at a Greensboro lunch counter, the Soviet Union shot down Gary Powers while he was ying a U2 spy plane, the US FDA approved the use of the rst oral contraceptive, AT&T led with the Federal Communications Commission for permission to launch an experimental communications satellite, and four Presidential debates between John Kennedy and Richard Nixon aired on national television. Less well known was the publication of a paper by the physicist Eugene Wigner. Ap- pearing in Communications in Pure and Applied Mathematics, a journal certainly not widely read by the general public, it bore the mysterious title The Unreasonable Eectiveness of Mathematics in the Natural Sciences. (Wigner, 1960) Like our cultural examples of the 1960's, it has had eects beyond what most people would have imagined. Our purpose here is to tease out some strains of an important question that has emerged from Wigner's work. Wigner begins with a story about two friends who were discussing their jobs. One of them, a statistician, was working on population trends. He mentioned a paper he had produced, which contained the Gaussian distribution equation near the beginning. The statistician attempted to explain the meaning it, as well as other mathematical symbols. His friend was a bit perplexed, and was not quite sure whether the statistician was pulling his leg.
