The aim of this paper is to show researchers various prospects for the integration of digital humanities projects.展开更多

Historically, since classical antiquity, urban space has always been the reflection of a collective identity representing the natural inclination of human beings to live in group. However, according to Lewis Mumford, the city has been the context in which another ideal arose--the concept of personality. This ideal, according to the official history of urban design, seems to have had a very marginal role, if not as a formal or functional analogous structure. Nevertheless, looking at the physical consistence of built space--as well as its ideal formulation--it is not difficult to find some evidence of Mumford's theory. Therefore, the paper, through an architectural overview ranging from classical street-side benches to contemporary digital cities, aims at outlining the progressive change in the representation of urban identities from a collective to a more personal dimension. It describes how public space design, especially during the last 30 years, has redefined its strategies in order to increase the possibilities of personal intervention for users, and it focuses on the gradual shift of this discipline towards other scales, instruments and objectives, in a sudden disciplinary convergence with interior architecture and industrial design. Thus, showing how a pervasive process of domestication is nowadays transforming not only the use, but also the symbolic meaning that the public domain has traditionally had.展开更多

It gives consumers a broader perspective, while also improving the self-consciousness of consumers. These effects will no longer fully believe in traditional consumer marketing "bombing" the dissemination and indoctrination, they are more inclined to be questioned brands and products, and they can express their views on the basis that affects other people. In this era of environment, if businesses and vendors for their view is indifferent attitude, they will lose a lot of attention to the crowd, and also it makes the influence of the traditional marketing model spread greatly reduced.展开更多

The main objective of this study was to select potential areas for suitable solid waste dumping for Kajiado County, Kenya. Eight input map layers including DEM (digital elevation model), topography, urban settlement, roads, wetlands, rivers, forests and protected areas were prepared and MCDA (Multi Criteria Decision Analysis Methods) were implemented in a GIS (geographic information systems) environment. GIS, RS (remote sensing) and MDCA are powerful tools which can effectively be applied during the planning phase of solid waste management in order to avoid adverse catastrophes in future. The final suitability map was prepared by weighted overlay analyses and leveled as the most suitable, moderate suitable, less suitable and unsuitable areas. The area of each suitability level was calculated using spatial statistics. Polygons representing the most suitable sites were further analyzed in terms of area perimeter ratio in order to investigate the most suitable areas in terms of shape regularity. The leading four polygons considered were marked A, B, C, D respectively in the final map. This study showed that suitable areas for solid waste landfills were limited and scattered in the study area.展开更多

Visual communication design on people's behavior and lifestyle has obvious effect, due to the widespread attention of people. The development of modem social economy and science and technology has changed the way of information extraction, requires designers must be under the influence of digital media technology with more diverse forms of design of visual communication design research. In this paper, on the basis of the brief analysis of the visual communication characteristics and under the influence of digital media design language features, and studies the influence of digital media under the trend of the development of visual communication design several opinions are put forward.展开更多
文摘正如你所看到的,从2003年6月成立数字家庭工作组(DHWG)到2004年6月正式更名为数字生活网络联盟(DLNA),在刚刚过去的1年里, 不知不觉间数字化进程已由早期的"家庭"范畴扩散到了人们"生活"的每一个角落。然而你又可曾注意过,是谁串接起了明天的数字化生活? 一个不争的事实是:Intel和微软这个在PC界携手10余载,创造了翻云覆雨的IT神话的Wintel联盟,现在正借助Intel的Xcale和微软的 Windows Mobile踌躇满志地转战数字生活新疆界,准备缔造另一个Wintel联盟新时代。
