Programming Architecture

This book investigates how architectural design advances as a result of the rapid developments in 3D Printing. As this technology become more powerful, faster and cheaper, novel workflows are becoming available and revolutionizing all stages of the design process, from early spatial concepts, to subsequent project development, advanced manufacturing processes, and integration into functional buildings. Based on a literature review and case studies of ten built projects, the book discusses the implications of the ongoing manufacturing revolution for the field of architecture.

The operation of dedicated content repositories is a change in perspective of content lifecycle management: their application largely promises both technical and financial benefits. Today, centrally managed static client-server architectures are the prevailing design approach for content repositories. Systems built according to this paradigm, however, inherently lack flexibility regarding the support of different content models and functional properties (e.g., dynamic reconfiguration) as well as non-functional aspects (e.g., scalability).

Que vous soyez technicien, étudiant ou amateur, que vous cherchiez à faire de la maintenance, du dépannage ou de l'optimisation, ou que vous ayez tout simplement envie d'en savoir plus sur votre ordinateur, voici l'ouvrage le plus actuel, le plus complet et le plus détaillé sur le PC.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 29th International Conference on Architecture of Computing Systems, ARCS 2016, held in Nuremberg, Germany, in April 2016.
