"Codes in the Clouds - Observing new Design Strategies

Abstract:
Looking at architecture through the lens of currently emerging advanced architectural design tools, strategies and techniques in the 21st century is as questionable as looking through the lens of a 2-dimensional Rapidograph drawing. Architecture is neither determined by complex geometries digitally established through scritping, nor by the one dimensional understanding of perception through a hard line drawing. The role of architecture is currently being challenged through almost overwhelming advanced digital techniques merged with traditional strategies in order to find its new identity within a post-mechanical towards an almost biological computing age of construction. We are seemingly fooled by the understanding that we do conquer the boundaries of geometry and form production. The paper discusses the connection point of advanced digital architecture as tool to complement and bring forward professionally and culturally established parameters, such as material tectonics, perception or materialism. If we do want to establish a new identity for architecture we must nourish an understanding of existing architectural knowledge as well as human learning. Complexity in architecture now means a critical reflection of digital architecture within the existing cultural and material context. A link or key to crossing the boundaries towards a current development of a new architectural language may be found in the findings of cognitive sciences starting from Herman von Helmholtz. The paper investigates a systemic approach based on biological computing and cybernetics in order to understand the opportunities of digital parametric design processes and tools aiming at implementing issues of culture, tradition and hard facts of human neural processing of the environment. The paper looks back at the beginnings of evolutionary architecture and also critically observes and challenges the current usage of scripting and generative design towards a holistic approach for current design challenges as design strategy."

This study aims to identify and describe the development of an effective Suroboyo Bus management strategy. This research uses a qualitative approach. Data collection is done by interviews, documentation, and questionnaires. Informants in this study were the public as Suroboyo Bus passengers, the Head of Operations Manager at Suroboyo Bus in Surabaya Transportation Department and the Head of Trash Management on Suroboyo Bus in the Surabaya City Green Cleaning and Open Space Office, and the Suroboyo Bus Organizer. Data analysis techniques using SWOT. The results in this study indicate that there are weaknesses and threats that can be overcome by using the strengths and opportunities that Suroboyo Bus has to develop. In this case, future strategies based on digital technology are formulated by implementing Excellent Public Service based on Digital Technology. In implementing the strategy, the focus is more on the use of digital technology to provide satisfying services to Suroboyo Bus ...

Η κρίση και ο Πόλεμος στον Περσικό κόλπο (1990-1991), υπήρξε μια δυναμική παρουσίαση των δυνατοτήτων που απορρέουν απο τις νέες τεχνολογίες. Αυτών που επιτρέπουν την χρήση οπλικών συστημάτων υψηλής ακρίβειας, όσο και εκείνων που εξασφαλίζουν την ταχύτερη διακίνηση των πληροφοριών και του συντονισμού των δυνάμεων. Ανάμεσα στις νέες τεχνολογίες που τα αποτελέσματα τους προβλήθηκαν ιδιαίτερα έντονα, ήταν η χρήση δορυφορικών συστημάτων. Ήταν ίσως η πρώτη φορά, που το μεγάλο κοινό αντελήφθη στην πράξη την μεγάλη, στρατηγική και τακτική, συμβολή των δορυφορικών συστημάτων στις πολεμικές επιχειρήσεις, αφού η χρήση τους επηρέασε τόσο σημαντικά την πορεία και το αποτέλεσμα του πολέμου. Παράλληλα όμως ο ίδιος πόλεμος αποκάλυψε σημαντικές αδυναμίες, που εντοπίζονται κυρίως στους τομείς των πληροφοριών και επικοινωνιών. Η μελέτη αυτή θα εστιαστεί στα δορυφορικά συστήματα (στρατιωτικά-εμπορικά), που χρησιμοποίησαν οι συμμαχικές δυνάμεις, στην θετική συνεισφορά τους καθώς και στις αδυναμίες που εντοπίστηκαν.

The purpose of this study is to describe and analyze the low level of political participation of state border communities as an evaluation of the implementation of the elections held by the Malinau Regional Election Commission in 2015. There is a tendency that border communities do not care about democratic parties (elections) being held, because they feel ostracized by the government, even most of their basic needs depend on neighboring countries, namely Malaysia. While the Indonesian government seems to be ignoring border communities with high living costs and low welfare levels. Giving the impression that the election results also did not have an impact on the lives of the people of the country's borders. Whereas one of the objectives of the implementation of the elections is to produce elections that have clean, honest and fair integrity in order to be able to produce qualified leaders to develop community welfare. The results showed that social, economic, geographical, admi...

In the current digital era, technology distribution in all sectors is crucial, no exception in the procurement of goods and services sector. Knowing this situation, the government then makes a policy that requires the process of procurement done electronically through the e-procurement application. By implementing this policy, the government expects an improvement of transparency, accountability, and efficiency in the process of procurement. To support this effort, in the year 2018 government also issued the Peraturan Presiden No. 16 Tahun 2018 on Public Procurement of Goods and Services, which provides an expansion of the role for stakeholders to engage in the process of procurement.One of the cities that implement e-procurement is Depok through its Working Unit for Procurement of Goods and Services (UKPBJ). This city even received numerous awards while implementing this policy. Nevertheless, there are many high fraud potential and corruption cases in this sector in the last few ye...

This study aims to determine the impact of the implementation of non-cash transactions with measuring variables are government commitment, human resource readiness, and cooperation on community characteristics. The study used a sample of 75 people from all Work Units or offices in the Keerom District government related to finance. The results  indicate that partially the implementation of non-Cash transactions with the variable commitment of the local government (X1), Readiness of Human Resources (X2), and Cooperation (X3) have an impact on the Characteristics of the Community (Y) in Keerom Regency which can be seen from the test value t-count compared to t-table as well as a significant level. Implementation of non-cash transactions jointly or simultaneously has an impact on the characteristics of the community (Y) in Keerom Regency which is done by comparing p_value or probability (F-statistics) with a significant level. From the calculation of the magnitude of the probability (F-...
