Design Integration Using Autodesk Revit 2022
by Daniel John StineDesign Integration Using Autodesk Revit 2022 is designed to provide you with a well-rounded knowledge of Autodesk Revit tools and techniques. <p><p>All three disciplines of the Revit platform are introduced in this textbook. This approach gives you a broad overview of the Building Information Modeling (BIM) process. The topics cover the design integration of most of the building disciplines: Architectural, Interior Design, Structural, Mechanical, Plumbing and Electrical. Civil is not covered, but adding topography to your model is. Each book also includes access to nearly 100 video tutorials designed to further help you master Autodesk Revit. <p><p> Throughout the book you develop a two story law office. The drawings start with the floor plans and develop all the way to photo-realistic renderings similar to the one on the cover of this book. Along the way the building’s structure, ductwork, plumbing and electrical (power and lighting) are modeled. By the end, you will have a thorough knowledge of many of the Revit basics needed to be productive in a classroom or office environment. Even if you will only be working with one component of Revit in your chosen profession, this book will give you important knowledge on how the other disciplines will be doing their work and valuable insight into the overall process. <p><p> The first four chapters cover many of the Revit basics needed to successfully and efficiently work with the software. Once the fundamentals are covered, the remaining chapters walk you through a building project which is started from scratch so nothing is taken for granted by you or the author.
Design Is The Problem
by Nathan ShedroffDesign makes a tremendous impact on the produced world in terms of usability, resources, understanding, and priorities. What we produce, how we serve customers and other stakeholders, and even how we understand how the world works is all affected by the design of models and solutions. Designers have an unprecedented opportunity to use their skills to make meaningful, sustainable change in the world--if they know how to focus their skills, time, and agendas. In Design is the Problem: The Future of Design Must be Sustainable, Nathan Shedroff examines how the endemic culture of design often creates unsustainable solutions, and shows how designers can bake sustainability into their design processes in order to produce more sustainable solutions.

Design Patterns mit Java: Eine Einführung
by Olaf MuschEine praxisnahe Beschreibung der Software Design Patterns, wie sie im 1994 erschienen Buch „Design Patterns – Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software“ der Autorengruppe Gamma, Helm, Johnson und Vlissides (auch genannt „Gang of Four“, kurz GoF, also „Viererbande“) Erwähnung finden.Alle Muster werden anhand von Beispielen detailliert erläutert und auch kritisch gewürdigt. Darüber hinaus werden Entwurfsprinzipien der objektorientierten Programmierung beschrieben und berücksichtigt. Alle Beispiele sind ausführlich im Quellcode kommentiert und unter Java 16 lauffähig. Teilweise werden auch neuere Features von Java bis einschließlich Version 16 erläutert und verwendet.
Design Patterns with Java: An Introduction
by Olaf MuschA practical description of the software design patterns as they are mentioned in the 1994 book "Design Patterns - Elements of Reusable ObjectOriented Software" by the author group Gamma, Helm, Johnson and Vlissides (also called "Gang of Four", GoF for short). All patterns are explained in detail by means of examples and also critically appreciated. Furthermore, design principles of object-oriented programming are described and considered. All examples are commented in detail in the source code and are executable under Java 16. In part, newer features of Java up to and including version 16 are also explained and used.
Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software
by Erich Gamma Richard Helm Ralph Johnson John VlissidesThis book assumes you are reasonably proficient in at least one object-oriented programming language, and you should have some experience in object-oriented design as well. It's a book of design patterns that describes simple and elegant solutions to specific problems in object-oriented software design. Design patterns capture solutions that have developed and evolved over time. Hence they aren't the designs people tend to generate initially. They reflect untold redesign and recoding as developers have struggled for greater reuse and flexibility in their software. Design patterns capture these solutions in a succinct and easily applied form.
Design Praxiology and Phenomenology: Understanding Ways of Knowing through Inventive Practices
by Beaumie Kim Lynde TanThis book offers insight into designerly ways of knowing from the perspectives of experts and professionals engaging in diverse forms of design in workplaces and other public domains. It also aids in the understanding of design practices from designers’ viewpoints via case studies. By pursuing a reflective inquiry in their design epistemology (designerly ways of knowing), design praxiology (practices of design), or design phenomenology (forms of designs), self-studies of design practices, and presenting studies of designs, the authors of this book demonstrate how they influence the people and the object of inquiry or design. The case studies presented in this book also illustrate how designers develop their expertise, and provides inspiration for the incorporation of design-thinking and practice in education.
Design Principles for Embedded Systems (Transactions on Computer Systems and Networks)
by KCS MurtiThe book is designed to serve as a textbook for courses offered to graduate and undergraduate students enrolled in electronics and electrical engineering and computer science. This book attempts to bridge the gap between electronics and computer science students, providing complementary knowledge that is essential for designing an embedded system. The book covers key concepts tailored for embedded system design in one place. The topics covered in this book are models and architectures, Executable Specific Languages – SystemC, Unified Modeling Language, real-time systems, real-time operating systems, networked embedded systems, Embedded Processor architectures, and platforms that are secured and energy-efficient. A major segment of embedded systems needs hard real-time requirements. This textbook includes real-time concepts including algorithms and real-time operating system standards like POSIX threads. Embedded systems are mostly distributed and networked for deterministic responses. The book covers how to design networked embedded systems with appropriate protocols for real-time requirements. Each chapter contains 2-3 solved case studies and 10 real-world problems as exercises to provide detailed coverage and essential pedagogical tools that make this an ideal textbook for students enrolled in electrical and electronics engineering and computer science programs.
