GREENWICH2000 INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM

The aim of this Symposium is to discuss the integration of digital
technology within the design and formation of the spaces we inhabit. The
Symposium will bring together academics, practitioners, researchers and
students of architecture, urban design, planning, landscape, construction
management, computer science and artificial intelligence.

The Symposium will primarily involve parallel presentations of papers at
eight Focus Symposia. Approaches to creative design and the involvement of
computers in the context of the environment will be debated through
discussions, seminars and workshops, reviewing the role of computers in the
exploration, communication and teaching of design ideas. An internationally
distinguished group of professionals and academics will generate stimulation
for debate both as keynote speakers and chairs of the Focus Symposia.

Throughout the Symposium there will be an exhibition of current software
and hardware commercially available in addition to workshops and project
demonstrations.

The symposium opens on Thursday 13 January 2000 and will end on Saturday
15 January 2000, at the Maritime Greenwich Campus, Old Royal Naval College,
University of Greenwich, London, UK.

Focus Symposia will address the following areas of design:

The impact of digital technology on the professions of the built
environment
Computers and the urban environment
Algorithmic design; problem solving, form and space
Anticipation and creativity in design strategies using computer technology
