  • Systematics of intelligent transport systems services

    Recent years have seen a more intensified deployment of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) in Polish cities. Work is also underway on the implementation of ITS on the national roads within the National Traffic Management System (KSZR). The research project RID-4D (part of Road Innovations), is designed to fill the gap, which is the lack of systematics of ITS services in Poland. The paper presents a proposal of ITS services systematics,...

    Publication
    • M. Zboińska

    - Year 2007

    The main objective of the paper is to investigate how the conflict quality of landscape can be used as its asset and potential for creating new values. Like mediation between different overlapping archaeologies offers a basis for the perception of place in the chronology of time, the mediation between conflicted areas creates a capacious zone for enhancing the unique quality of landscape in its architectural, social, cultural and...

  • Politics and urban artifacts in cities: what are they and how are they interconected?

    This research, analyses the effect of politics on a city and its image, via their control over the formation or changes on urban artifacts. It analyses the concepts introduced in Aldo Rossi’s architectural monograph, The Architecture of the City, in the chapter titled ‘Politics as Choice’, and his idea that a city’s image is a reflection of its political institutions and the choices people in authority make. Monuments and architecture...
