Research activities in applied informatic fields related to the design, planning and management of engineering disciplines are increasing. The purpose of these activities is to define future working environments for all parties concerned with the design, planning and management of the built environment. In this respect attention is being focused on advanced technologies in order to create new environments and to discover new tools for designing, planning, decision-making etc. The 49 papers in this volume give an in-depth analysis on the planning and integration of advanced technologies, as well as the current terms and conditions necessary for introducing the new tools offered by the latest developments in the fields of artificial intelligence, robotics and image processing. The new strategies are reviewed in the light of the inevitable changes that will be required of the professional and educational working environments of architecture, building engineering, civil engineering, urban design and urban planning. The first three sections of the book emphasize research, development and application issues concerning advanced technologies.
Section four is a collection of papers each dealing with a specific topic of interest. The volume will prove an indispensable reference source on the prerequisites for, and the impacts of, advanced technologies in civil engineering, architecture building engineering, urban design and urban planning, and the integration of these technologies in the areas of research, development, education and professional environments.
