Recording of heritage buildings: from measured drawing to 3D laser scanning

This entry is a transcription of the opening keynote for the two-day international, peer reviewed conference held at the Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL on November 10-11 2016. It was simultaneously published in the book, "Drawing Futures - Speculations in Contemporary Drawing for Art and Architecture", edited by Laura Allen and Luke Caspar Pearson. It outlines my 30 years of speculative architectural drawing

Change-driven development for scientific software

Scientific software production dates back to the days before the computer science discipline obtained its own name. Over the past 76 years, scientists have been producing software, which means that most of the modern techniques and software engineering methods available these days did not exist while part of this process was taking place. Change-driven development was born as a new approach to maintain and develop scientific software. Founded on the principles of software essence (changeability, complexity, intangibility, and conformity), integrated development tools, and automated source code transformation. This new, agile approach takes change as a working unit devised to drive the entire development process, which is performed in a four-stage cycle. One of the most interesting approaches to apply change-driven development on scientific software is to update, modernize and even parallelize sequential programs that have been written 20 or 30 years ago and are still running in production environments. This process will be thoroughly described and implemented. Two successful case studies will be presented and analyzed in depth.Instituto de Investigación en Informátic

Drawing Futures

Drawing Futures brings together international designers and artists for speculations in contemporary drawing for art and architecture. Despite numerous developments in technological manufacture and computational design that provide new grounds for designers, the act of drawing still plays a central role as a vehicle for speculation. There is a rich and long history of drawing tied to innovations in technology as well as to revolutions in our philosophical understanding of the world. In reflection of a society now underpinned by computational networks and interfaces allowing hitherto unprecedented views of the world, the changing status of the drawing and its representation as a political act demands a platform for reflection and innovation. Drawing Futures will present a compendium of projects, writings and interviews that critically reassess the act of drawing and where its future may lie. Drawing Futures focuses on the discussion of how the field of drawing may expand synchronously alongside technological and computational developments. The book coincides with an international conference of the same name, taking place at The Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL, in November 2016. Bringing together practitioners from many creative fields, the book discusses how drawing is changing in relation to new technologies for the production and dissemination of ideas
