This study started with an axiom that architecture is about complex system because the problem of architecture is complex in nature. Architecture and complexity is not a new topic in architectural research; Robert Venturi and Charles Jencks had philosophised about this. But only because at this time, the study of complex things has become more common and I feel the necessity to re-inquire

a reply from Paul Chew Subject : Re: voronoi diagram Date : Thu, 15 May 2003 17:40:49 -0400 (EDT) This sounds about right. You can simplify it by creating the entire diagram inside a very large triangle (i.e., the triangle's vertices are used to initialize the Delaunay triangulation). This way you don't have to worry about the convex hull. - Paul Chew >hi >if you dont mind to

geometric dual http://mathworld.wolfram.com/GeometricDualGraph.html pic geometricdualgraph.jpg from that page: Given a planar graph G, its geometric dual is constructed by placing a vertex in each region of G (including the exterior region) and, if two regions have an edge x in common, joining the corresponding vertices by an edge crossing only x. The result is always a planar pseudograph.

my research is to find a proof by means of computer modelling, of the idea that configuration of space influence and can be influenced by configuration of people (Bill Hillier, 1996). [is this the shortest sentence to describe my research problem?] the direction (at the moment) is that co-evolutionary theme is adaptable to the problem of space use.

Glossary of Terms set P is collection of points (where each point is presented in Cartesian coordinate) in the plane. Convex Hull of P or C H (P) is the smallest convex polygon that includes all points of P Vertex is a point; a location in Cartesian sense. or, is intersection point of two sides. Vertices of C H (P) (plural) vertex

i've just realise that i work better with cpp because this is the only programming strategy i've known until now; ie. structural abstraction of programming/object orientation. reading http://ciips.ee.uwa.edu.au/~morris/Year2/PLDS210/strategies.html then realised that i have very little knowledge of functional programming, how to construct object and methods in programming. thus i will bring
