What’s the Difference Between Architecture and Design?

The question of how architecture is different from design has nipped at the heels of the architecture community for years. Fortunately, the answer is easy. Architecture is design, but not all design is architecture. That is, many design decisions are left unbound by the architecture and are happily left to the discretion and good judgment of downstream designers and implementers. The architecture establishes constraints on downstream activities, and those activities must produce artifacts—finer-grained designs and code—that are compliant with the architecture, but architecture does not define an implementation.

linear...

In this definition, x is not necessarily a real number, but can in general be a member of any vector space. A less restrictive definition of linear function, not coinciding with the definition of linear map, is used in elementary mathematics. The concept of linearity can be extended to linear operators. Important examples of linear operators include the derivative considered as a differential operator, and many constructed from it, such as del and the Laplacian. When a differential equation can be expressed in linear form, it is particularly easy to solve by breaking the equation up into smaller pieces, solving each of those pieces, and adding the solutions up. Linear algebra is the branch of mathematics concerned with the study of vectors, vector spaces (or linear spaces), linear transformations (or linear maps), and systems of linear equations. Nonlinear equations and functions are of interest to physicists and mathematicians because they can be used to represent many natural phenomena, including chaos. arts in linear... Linear is one of the five categories proposed by Swiss art historian Heinrich Wölfflin to distinguish "Classic", or Renaissance art, from the Baroque. According to Wölfflin, painters of the fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries (Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael or Albrecht Dürer) are more linear than "painterly" Baroque painters of the seventeenth (Peter Paul Rubens, Rembrandt, and Velázquez) because they primarily use outline to create form

grafik..

Grafik merupakan antara media yang paling utama dan popular digunakan bagi memperlihatkan keterampilan sesebuah aplikasi multimedia. Menurut kamus Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka, grafik membawa maksud ‘perkara berkenaan lukisan atau ukiran’. Dalam hal ini, penggunaan grafik dalam sesuatu persembahan maklumat berkomputer adalah bukan hanya berperanan untuk menonjolkan keindahan atau kecanggihan senibina sesebuah program multimedia tetapi juga berperanan sebagai suatu sumber penyampaian sesuatu maklumat yang amat berkesan. Grafik juga memberikan maksud penggunaan visual untuk menerangkan konsep yang tidak dapat atau sukar diterangkan oleh teks. Ia mampu menambah daya tarikan kepada sesuatu paparan atau persembahan. Grafik juga dapat mempercepatkan penyampaian sesuatu maklumat dan dapat memberikan penerangan yang jelas, tepat dan konsisten antara individu yang berbeza. Grafik dikatakan sebagai sumber penyampai maklumat yang amat berkesan kerana segala bentuk mesej yang diterima oleh manusia melalui penglihatan mereka dapat diterima secara terperinci dan ianya mempunyai daya ketahanan serta daya ingatan yang tinggi. Grafik berkomputer pula merujuk kepada sebarang imej yang dihasilkan menggunakan sebarang jenis komputer (PC, Macintosh, Silicon Graphicsdan sebagainya). Imej berkomputer ini boleh merujuk kepada imej yang mudah seperti garisan atau bulatan ataupun yang lebih kompleks seperti fractal iaitu imej kompleks yang dihasilkan oleh komputer dari formula atau kod pengaturcaraan yang tertentu. Jenis-jenis Grafik Grafik merujuk kepada pelbagai lukisan, ilustrasi, fotograf, rajah, carta, kartun dan sebagainya. • Fotograf (Gambar Foto) Merupakan antara paparan imej yang paling menyamai keadaan sebenar. Pita video warna, gambar berwarna mahupun foto hitam putih merupakan alat yang paling berkesan di dalam sesuatu komunikasi. Gambar foto atau fotograf berwarna juga memainkan peranan yang amat besar di dalam sesebuah persembahan dan boleh dijadikan latarbelakang bagi teks dan grafik. • Lukisan Merujuk kepada imej yang kurang realistik berbanding dengan fotograf. Namun demikian, ia banyak digunakan bagi menangani masalah ketiadaan fotograf bagi keadaan sebenar. Ia boleh jadi lukisan yang mudah sehinggalah kepada lukisan yang abstrak. • Kartun Sejenis lukisan yang berada di dalam kelasnya yang tersendiri. Kartun boleh merujuk kepada yang berunsur kemanusiaan, haiwan, objek dan sebagainya. Ia sesuai digunakan terutamanya sekiranya kumpulan sasaran adalah kanak-kanak atau remaja. Kartun sering digunakan bagi menarik perhatian pengguna. Ia juga sering digunakan sebagai watak pengacara di dalam sesebuah aplikasi multimedia yang menbantu serta membimbing pengguna disepanjang perlajanan sesebuah aplikasi. • Diagram Diagram merujuk kepada sejenis lukisan yang digunakan bagi melambangkan sesuatu sepertimana yang asal. Contohnya diagram jantung mungkin mewakili sepertimana gambar jantung yang sebenar. • Graf/Carta Merujuk kepada kaedah berkomunikasi berunsurkan data dan numerik. Sesuatu maklumat yang kompleks dapat dimudahkan sekiranya ia ditukarkan ke bentuk carta atau graf. Perisian-perisian Grafik (i) Microsoft Paint atau Paint Brush (ii) Adobe Photoshop dan Adobe Illustrator (iii) Corel Draw (iv) Painter 3D (v) Macromedia Freehand (vi) Micrograft Designer (vii) Autucad

What is an architecture..

What is an architecture.. Definition: An architect is a licensed professional who organizes space. Architects design houses, office buildings, skyscrapers, landscapes, and even entire cities. How does one become a professional home designer? Answer: If you dream of designing houses and other small buildings, but don't want to spend the years it takes to become a registered architect, then you may want to explore career opportunities in the field of Building Design. A Professional Building Designer, or Home Designer, specializes in designing light-frame buildings such as single family homes and agricultural buildings. A Professional Building Designer may also design decorative facades for larger buildings. Unlike architects, Professional Building Designers are not legally required to pass exams or receive special licenses. However, a designer who carries the title "Certified Professional Building Designer" or "CPBD" has completed training courses, built a portfolio, and passed a difficult exam. What can I do with a major in architecture? Answer: Architecture is more than designing buildings. Students who study architecture in college may choose to go into many different careers. Here's just a sampling: • Architectural Journalist • Architectural Historian • Corporate Architect • Draftsperson • Building Researcher • Building Inspector • Building Contractor • Carpenter • Cartographer • Architectural Engineer • Civil Engineer • Industrial Engineer • Marine Architect • Mechanical Engineer • Surveyor • Technical Illustrator • Urban Planner • Art Director • Fashion Designer
