Goonewardena Kanishka: The Future of
Planning at the End of History

The Future of Planning at the End of History

Community Development Research and Practice Series

This edited collection presents successful business succession planning in smaller rural communities where profit margins are low, markets are shrinking, and there are few potential buyers. Chapters outline options for successfully transitioning businesses that have worked in Canada, England, and the U.S.

Routledge Library Editions: Ethnoscapes

Originally published in 1993, as part of the Ethnoscapes: Current Challenges in the Environmental Social Sciences series, reissued now with a new series introduction, Housing: Design, Research and Education, demonstrated some of the diversity and richness of the research being undertaken in housing at time, which took as its starting point peoples' notion of home and the way in which a sense of home is captured distilled and expressed through various facets of design, and conversely the urgent need for architects and planners to take seriously the everyday scale and scope of peoples' home experience. The breadth of subject background and cultural location from which these chapters are drawn provides stimulating reading at the same time as presenting a challenging choice of perspectives.

Taking an international perspective, this book explores the ideas that underpin the design of contemporary architecture with particular reference to buildings that contain an explicit relationship with their context.

Smart Cities

Assembling Smart Cyber-Physical Systems: Heterogeneous, Diffuse and Green Technological Infrastructures for Cities and Industries offers a comprehensive approach to design, implement, and use Cyber Physical Systems (CPSs)-computing systems with a strong interaction between the physical environment (equipped with sensors and actuators) and the cyber realm (the Cloud). Through a carefully structured methodological approach to systems design, readers will understand how the infrastructure continuum represents our environment, where we can move from edge computing to the Cloud, going through fog resources to set up an entire framework for services deployment and application in smart cities and industries. As dealing with complex systems has become increasingly difficult, CPSs are increasingly critical to cope with integrating software, which people are used to, with hardware, which is distributed among different domains. This book shows how to deal with such systems where there is no distinction among the different parts: computing, storage, networking and IoT all contribute to setting up the modern processing environments, thus it is mandatory to keep them simultaneously under control. The book follows this holistic approach and supports the reader in dealing with CPSs of growing complexity, where theory and practice continuously mix to give a concrete structure to the discussion. It teaches how to design a network architecture with all the virtualized resources in place, how to optimize their interaction and keep everything under the full control of the system manager. This book allows students, researchers, practitioners, and professionals alike to learn the theory behind CPSs put that theory into practice in smart city and industry applications.

Assembling Smart Cyber-Physical Systems

This book explores how maps generated through Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can be used to integrate principles of health equity and environmental justice into community planning and decision-making. To do this, the book puts forward the 3Ps of GIS mapping: People, Place, and Policy. This book demonstrates how different maps reveal different spatial disparities for each topic, providing alternative lens for addressing sociöcultural, political, or geographical issues. Using a step-by-step approach, and covering the core concepts by which GIS maps can be interpreted, it builds to provide a comprehensive understanding of what a GIS-generated map may tell us, though crucially also what it may not. Featuring illustrated examples throughout, this book is essentially a tool kit to support a nuanced and holistic perspective on community planning.It will appeal to policymakers, planners, and public health consultants, as well as students moving toward this field.

Smart Cities and Artificial Intelligence: Convergent Systems for Planning, Design, and Operations, Second Edition delves into the evolution of urban ecosystems through the integration of advanced technologies like machine learning, geospatial intelligence, and smart connected objects. By examining cities as dynamic, real-time systems and providing tools such as generative design and living lab models, this book equips readers with both conceptual and practical knowledge for planning, designing, and operating smart cities. The book adopts a multidisciplinary approach, emphasizing the convergence of digital and physical realms and the transformative impact of human and machine intelligence on urban environments. It offers a holistic understanding of smart city functions, aiming to make cities more livable and sustainable. New sections include a focus on the Metaverse, comparisons of global smart city models, and updated use cases and applications of AI since the first edition.

A Grass Roots Designer’s Guide to Working Abroad

Design Beyond Borders

This book draws inspiration from one hundred places-towns, buildings, streets, rooms, villages-from different eras and from around the world, that have played an important role in the author's career in architecture, as a researcher, practitioner and teacher. Insights come from everyday places as well as from famous landmarks, from the house to the public building, from the street to the city. The book is organized chronologically, beginning with the authors' earliest encounters with architecture as a child in New York, leading to his most recent experiences as an experienced professor and scholar who has traveled to over 50 countries on six continents. Readers are encouraged to be explicit about how they look at the world, to see how looking further and deeper at the places they encounter in their everday lives and in their travels can enrich their ideas and understandings about the world around them.With beautiful photographs, supplemented by drawings and diagrams, the book will interest people who are fascinated by architecture and cities, including teachers, practitioners and students of architecture and urban design.

A Practical Farmer’s Journey

Most of us need to find a job after finishing architecture school. Get Practiced is a guide for getting the first five years of your career underway. Whether a student or a recent graduate, you have the skills and training you need. Why settle for the first job you can get? Through practical exercises and first hand accounts, Get Practiced provides you the information you need to create your own professional-development plan, as well as ensure that you can execute it. Although it's impossible to predict exactly how your career will turn out, it's entirely possible to shape and craft it. This book explains how to become a productive and successful professional even before you have graduated. For those interested in making a change from your current job or gaining a specialty, Get Practiced offers interviews, case studies, and examples that illustrate the importance of focusing your professional objectives, building networks, and how to generate tangible evidence that effectively transmits your abilities. You will use your skills as a learned to become a producer. Exercises include- Make a list of your benchmarks- Apply to one non-job related post- Interview a mentor- Write your own studio brief- Conduct a 48-hour charrette project with some friendsGet Practiced sections examine all scales of formative design production:- The US-based firm with four partners from Columbia, Egypt, Canada, and the US who are conducting curatorial projects in Boston, large-scale urban design projects in the Middle East, and building houses in Guatemala- The German/American industrial design partnership in London, who recently completed an artist-in-residence at the the Victoria and Albert Museum- The Portuguese architect and writer who is now the curator of Contemporay Architecture at the Museum of Modern Art- The Connecticut architect and businessman who moved from New York City to head Bruce Mau Design in Toronto- The two American grad students who started building a hospital in Rwanda while in their second year of school
