	architecture. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		As an art, architecture is essentially abstract and nonrepresentational and involves the manipulation of the relationships of spaces, volumes, planes, masses, and voids.
		there were three great developments in architectural construction—the post-and-lintel, or trabeated, system; the arch system, either the cohesive type, employing plastic materials hardening into a homogeneous mass, or the thrust type, in which the loads are received and counterbalanced at definite points; and the modern steel-skeleton system.
		The birth of Renaissance architecture (15th cent.) inaugurated a period of several hundred years in Western architecture during which the multiple and complex buildings of the modern world began to emerge, while at the same time no new and compelling structural conceptions appeared.

	MIT Architecture: Nasser Rabbat Profile
		His interests are early and medieval Islamic art and architecture, medieval urban history and historiography, vernacular architecture, and post-colonial criticism and its ramifications for the study of architectural history.
		He teaches lecture courses on architecture in the Islamic world in general and in specific locales, such as Cairo, or on particular themes, such as environmental architecture, and seminars on Islamic urbanism, cultural signification in architecture, and on Orientalism and representation.
		Rabbat is also pursuing two other research topics: the survival of classical architectural traditions in the early Islamic period (7-8 c), and the work of British and French architects in the Middle East in the nineteenth century.

		Gehry's buildings, seemingly casual and slapdash, are in fact highly studied and subtle essays on the nature of pure form, of architectural space, of collision and of connection.
		SYMBOLIC ARCHITECTURE by Charles Jencks, with photographs by Richard Bryant (Rizzoli, 248 pp., $50), is an anomaly - an attempt by a critic of architec-ture to establish himself as an architect.

	A developer's guide to the POWER architecture
		The POWER architecture and the application-level programming model are common across all branches of the POWER architecture family tree.
		The POWER architecture is broken up into three levels, or "books." By segmenting the architecture in this way, code compatibility can be maintained across implementations while leaving room for implementations to choose levels of complexity for price/performances trade-offs.
		While the three architectures have differences that would primarily be exposed at the operating system level, they provide a great degree of application-level compatibility.

	The von Neumann Architecture of Computer Systems
		Any discussion of computer architectures, of how computers and computer systems are organized, designed, and implemented, inevitably makes reference to the "von Neumann architecture" as a basis for comparison.
		The expectations for the fifth generation systems seem to require that substantially new architectures be evolved, and that both hardware and software be freed from the limitations of the von Neumann architecture [Sharp 1985].
		It is an improvement in the implementation, not in the architecture.

		De Hahn’s understanding and respect for a continuity of values in architecture has brought his interest towards a reevaluation of modernist theories by working on projects which emphasize contemporary architecture within a cultural urban context.
		A variety of interests ranging from building types to the transference of vernacular structures to high architecture to the tectonic of materials and their construction have, in the last five years, lead de Hahn towards a renewed interest in a “realistic/utopic” theoretical underpinning of his work.
		His large scale competitions and recent African Cemetery No. 2 project exemplify this current approach which parallels his academic research which focuses on contemporary Swiss architecture and the understanding of the mapping of the city as an analogous principle of settlement.
